    BREAKING NEWS - NEWSTALK

    A 62 year old post mistress from Whitehall was kidnapped yesterday in connection with a Tiger Raid.

    They said that she was kidnapped at 6pm yesterday and taken to dun laoire.

    One of the kidnappers fell asleep and she escaped.

    Does anyone else have any more info on this? I am from the area, I know one, pretty infamous, elderly post mistress, but she is from Santry. I am just trying to get as much info as possible.

    It's kinda scary when these things start to happen a little closer to home.

    Where they kidnap them over night and then return to the bank or post office the next day and rob it, with the help of an employee.

    it says She lives in whitehall (she was snatched outside her house) but it doesnt say where she is post mistress.

    I live in whitehall and i didnt hear about this til i read this post!

    The only post office that i know of around here is the one in the supermarket which i doubt was it as a robbery there would be unlikely me thinks so anyway with so many other workers around so it could be that lady in santry.

    What an ordeal for anyone to go through never mind an old lady - this world is gone f**king mad.:mad:

    Tiger raid sounds a bit too cool for this type of thing .. Idiots will be calling themselves tiger raiders can we think of a name that doesnt add criminal glamour to this act.

    Any suggestions ?

    Mine is Pink hole raiding ...
