Gardai say that they’re doing all they can to find the thugs who attacked a very old lady and her sons in Roscommon. They say that they’re doing as much questioning of locals as possible and trying to gather as much CCTV footage as possible.
Many people are saying that Ireland has gone to hell in a handcart with its latest crime figures, with large numbers of people blaming the Minister for Justice Helen McEntee.
Gardai have launched an investigation following an aggravated burglary in which a 94-yr-old woman and her two sons were held hostage by a gang of six thugs.
The incident happened at a business premises in Ballintubber, Co. Roscommon, on Monday morning.
It is understood that six men armed with screwdrivers broke into the premises and shoved the trio into a room while the house was being ransacked. The raiders made good their escape with a sum of money.
