Library break-in

Thieves who broke into the Library during the week damaged windows and stole a computer.

But the computer was recovered later by gardai and is now being examined by forensic experts for fingerprints or any other evidence.



The Diary understands that the computer was located hidden in the immediate area, and it is suggested the thieves may have been planning to retrieve it later.

It isn't clear exactly when the break-in happened, as the Library is only open a few days a week. But it may have been Wednesday night.

The facility remained closed through Friday, pending repairs to the broken windows, and was scheduled to reopen on Saturday at 12.30.
