Caller with information on missing man urged to make contact again

A mystery caller has rung a missing persons hotline with information about a man believed to have been murdered 15 years ago.

The man left a message on the phone line in recent days, operated independent of gardaí, and set up by the Searching for the Missing group, with information about the disappearance of Limerick man Matthew Carroll.

The Southill resident was last seen on the evening of Jun 8, 1998, as he left the former Steering Wheel pub in Roxboro. His family believe he was murdered by members of a local crime family.
