Outpouring of support for Cork pensioner after raid on his home

The raiders made off with some €1,600 in cash which was being saved to install radiators in his house, jewellery his mother inherited, and four commemorative coins which could be worth up to €950 each.
An emotional Pat Kelly, 72, who lives with his niece, Susan, on the southside of Cork City, branded the raiders “scumbags” for taking the cash she had been saving for the radiators, and to buy Christmas panto tickets for her children.
