€3,000 snatched by man who burgled same house four times
The house at Ard na Gréine in Cork city was burgled in the absence of the owners twice in June 2010 and again in April and June 2011. It was only with the assistance of CCTV that the culprit was identified as Paul Sheehan of 46 Killala Gardens, Knocknaheeny, Cork.
Defence solicitor Frank Buttimer said yesterday that there was a connection between Sheehan and the owners of the house. The house belonged to a brother of the defendant’s girlfriend. Sheehan got his hands on a key, which he used to let himself in on the four occasions when the owners were away.
