Paralympian’s stolen car recovered

John McCarthy, from Dunmanway in Co Cork, had sparked a huge online appeal for information when he posted about the theft on his Facebook page on Monday morning.
The C-reg black Audi A6 Estate, which had been customised for the wheelchair-user, was stolen from outside his home in Lucan on Sunday night. The thieves had entered Mr McCarthy’s home while he slept and taken the keys.
