Gardaí are investigating the chilling theft of an ice cream display from a Letterkenny shop.
Three flaky thieves, who were caught on CCTV, nabbed the large cone advertisement from a premises at Glencar Shopping Centre on the morning of Sunday 21st May at 6.23am.
Two males and one female were spotted on camera. The males concealed their faces with hoods up while the female was wearing a pink zipped-up top and pink tracksuit bottoms.
The suspects made off in the direction of Dr McGinley Road.
Gardaí are hopeful that the strange sight may have caught the attention of drivers or taxi drivers in the town.
“If you did observe this or have dashcam footage, please drop it into us,” said Garda Grainne Doherty in a community appeal.
“Somebody has seen this cone,” Gda Doherty said.
“If a giant ice-cream cone has appeared in your living room or your friends’ apartment, somebody knows something about this these things are quite expensive and times are hard for businesses. We are anxious to have this item returned to the owner.”
Gda Doherty appealed to those who took the cone to return it.
“To whoever did take it, it might have been a moment of madness, drop it back.”
