An Garda Síochána is appealing for information after a boat was damaged at Oughterard Pier in Co Galway last month.

Gardaí in Oughterard are investigating an incident of criminal damage which occurred on a date between May 12, 2021 and May 17, 2021.

Significant damage was caused to the rear of a boat while it was moored at Oughterard Pier. Gardaí believe the damage was caused by another vessel, or pleasure craft.

The boat in question is a 26 foot sailing boat and is brown in colour. 

Gardaí are interested in speaking with anyone who may have been in the vicinity of the pier on these dates and who may be able to assist them with their enquiries.

 In particular they are anxious to talk to anyone who may have witnessed a collision with this boat or who may have video footage, including dash cam footage, of this location covering the dates in question.

Tá An Garda Síochána ag lorg eolas maidir le damáiste a déanadh do bhád ag Cé Uachtar Ard i gCo na Gaillimhe an mhí seo caite.

Tá Gardaí in Uachtar Ard ag fiosrú eachtra a bhain le damáiste coiriúil agus a tharla ar dháta idir 12 Bealtaine, 2021 agus 17 Bealtaine, 2021.

Rinneadh damáiste suntasach do chúl an báid agus é feistithe ar Ché Uachtar Ard. Creideann gardaí gur árthach eile, nó árthach áineasa, ba chúis leis an damáiste.

Is bád seoltóireachta 26 troigh é an bád atá i gceist agus tá dath donn air.

Tá spéis ag Gardaí labhairt le duine ar bith a bhí sa cheantar timpeall ar an gcé ar na dátaí seo agus a d’fhéadfadh cabhrú leo lena bhfiosrúcháin.

Tá spéis acu, ach go háirithe, labhairt le duine ar bith a chonaic imbhualadh leis an mbád seo nó a bhféadfadh píosaí scannáin a bheith acu, lena n-áirítear píosaí scannáin dash cam, den láthair seo le linn na dátaí atá i gceist.

Iarrtar ar aon duine le heolas teagmháil a dhéanamh le Garda Peter Naughton ag Stáisiún na nGardaí, Uachtar Ard, ar (091) 557320 nó Líne Rúnda an Gharda Síochána 1800 666 111.
