Gardaí: Woman’s kidnap ‘random’

Gardaí in Dundalk believe the abduction of a young woman who was taken across the border by a man and woman working together was a “random” incident.

However, they have warned women to be extra vigilant, especially if walking alone at night.

Supt Gerry Curley, Dundalk, confirmed there was a joint investigation with the PSNI into the incident, which began at about 12.30am on Friday last.
