Gardaí investigating the disappearance and murder of Kyran Durnin (6 years) have today, Wednesday 26th February 2025 commenced a search of a domestic residence in Drogheda.
The house will be subject of technical and forensic examinations.
The purpose of the search is to discover any evidence which might provide us with information as to Kyrans’ current whereabouts or what has happened to Kyran.
Investigating Gardaí have to date received extensive support from the public. Despite the public support and extensive and ongoing enquiries carried out by Gardaí to date, An Garda Síochána have been unable to locate Kyran. Kyran would now be 8 years old.
