Gardaí issue age-progression photo of missing woman

Gardaí have renewed their appeal for information about a girl who went missing 17 years ago by issuing an age-progression photograph.

Ciara Breen was 17 years old when she went missing from her home on Bachelor's Walk in Dundalk in the early hours of the morning of February 13, 1997.

She is described as being of slim build, with a sallow complexion, long dark hair and blue eyes and 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.

She was also wearing a black leather wrist watch with a square face and green background.

Gardaí say two potential witnesses have recently come forward and have been of great assistance to the investigation team.

Investigating officers are appealing to anyone who may have information in relation to Ciara’s disappearance or who may have seen her on the night/morning of her disappearance to contact Dundalk Garda Station on 042-9388400, the Garda Confidential Line 1-800-666-111 or any Garda Station.
