Donegal gardaí appeal after cyclist snatches handbag from lady at bus stop
The stolen green handbag contains valuables such as a MacBook, an iPhone and a purse
Gardaí have appealed after a lady had her handbag stolen at a bus stop in Inishowen.
A male on a bicycle, who was wearing black clothing with a hood up, snatched the handbag as he passed by. The cyclist then continued towards Quigley’s Point with the stolen handbag, which contained a white wallet (containing a small amount of Stlg cash and a Lloyds Bank card), Samsung earbuds, an Apple Laptop, an Apple iPhone, and a VR headset.
The theft occurred at Aught Road in Muff last Wednesday at around 9:30pm.
“We appeal to anyone who may have observed this cyclist in the area to get in touch with Gardaí,” a garda spokesperson said. “If anyone travelled along that route (Aught Road, Muff) between 9pm and 10pm with a dash-cam or within the general area of Muff village, we ask them to make the footage available to Gardaí.
“Should anyone come across these types of items for sale on a second-hand basis, we ask them to alert Gardaí. Buncrana Gardaí may be reached on 074-9320540. The Garda Confidential line can be contacted on 1800 666 111.”
