    Not in the city, but in the county.

    Topic Moved

    That chopper was going for at least an hour and was out further than the lake as it woke me here at about half 5. So was searching the bay anyway.

    I took a walk around search was focused over pebble beach and around the trees. Their search light aided the gardai. I imagine they were use their ir too. Every now and again the searched along by the beach-back strand area. They also searched around rivers town too. Wonder did it have anything o do with the travellers that moved into tram ore yesterday-parked up by the gas pitch?

    If it was a serious issue, people would be notified by the Gardai. Some things need to be kept quiet to aid the Gardai in their investigations. There are lots of rumours etc. but your son should treat it as any other day. :)

    I've heard some pretty serious rumours and while I accept that there's legs added to everything and they are probably not entirely true, but given the extent of the Garda operation, there's no smoke without fire!

    Some fella handed himself into the barracks covered in blood saying he'd killed someone.

    Man running around with a hatchet

    Two girls stabbed/killed in pebble beach

    Helicopter was doing a land search for a body

    Like I said all rumors tho... good to see the Tramore gossip mill is still fully operational!

    There's nothing like a good bitta gossip. I heard all those rumour too. Haven't heard any else about it though but it must have been serious with all the commotion I heard last night.

    And one girl possibly 'rapped' [sic] according to someone on Twitter...


    In all seriousness though, hope it's just the rumour mill in overdrive... :(

    Suggestion now that it may be just one mentally unwell fella. Authorities can't find any evidence of what he is suggesting. Gardai not revealing anything to the media all day.

    seems appropriate to ask this here but it is a city query,
    Any truth that a bunch of ppl got out of a van today and randomly attacked ppl in city square?
    (Based on rumor, no official source)

    On R117's facebook page it says they were called to assist Gardai in a search around Tramore after an assailant with a weapon claimed he had killed someone and that it appears it was just the alcohol talking.

    People that make claims like that, getting members of the emergency services out when there is no need should be heavily fined. Jail is too good for them and its only the tax payer that will be paying to keep them there.

    I agree plus R117 had a wasted night the previous night when someone let of chinese lanterns and this in turn had people thinking they'd seen a flare and phoned for help.
