TADGH Farrell, the 17-year-old teenager who had been missing from his home in Coolock, Dublin since September 9, 2023, has been located safe and well, according to An Garda Síochána.

Described as being around 5 feet 5 inches tall, with a thin build, short fair hair, and blue eyes, Tadgh was last spotted riding his Grey Carrera bicycle. At that time, he was wearing a grey and navy McKenzie jacket, a mint green Nike t-shirt, and black Northface tracksuit bottoms.

An Garda Síochána expressed their gratitude to the media and the public for their assistance during the search operation.

With Tadgh now safely reunited with his loved ones, there is no further media action required in this case.
