Possible witnesses spark new appeal for missing teen

Gardaí have issued a fresh appeal for the public’s help in the 17-year long search for a missing teenager after two potential witnesses recently came forward.

Ciara Breen, 17, was last seen at her home at Bachelors Walk, Dundalk, Co Louth, in the early hours of February 13, 1997. She has a slim build, with a sallow complexion, long dark hair and blue eyes.

When last seen she was wearing a black leather jacket, blue jeans, wine-coloured sweatshirt and a white T-shirt with an image of her own face on it. Ciara was also wearing a black leather wrist watch with a square face and green background.
