Gardaí make urgent appeal for missing pensioner

Gardaí in Dublin are appealing for information on the whereabouts of a missing 67-year-old woman.

Bridgett Cashman, also known as Berenice, is originally from Mallow in Co. Cork, but went missing from her daughter's home on Coolevin Road in Dublin 8.

Bridgett is around five feet six inches tall, of small build, with mid-length blonde hair and blue eyes.

She was last seen at 7.30am yesterday morning wearing a brown rain jacket and carrying a blue Samsonite suitcase.

Gardaí at Kevin Street have said they are seriously concerned for her safety as she suffers from a number of underlying medical conditions.
