Graveyard gets CCTV system to stop thieves

CCTV cameras have been installed outside a graveyard on the outskirts of Cork City to deter thieves targeting mourners’ cars.

The city council spent between €8,000 and €10,000 on the four-camera system at St Catherine’s Cemetery in Kilcully — the main graveyard for the northside of the city.

It was the first time the council was forced to install a security camera system at one of its four cemeteries.
