GARDAÍ are appealing for the driver of a white Opel to come forward as part of their investigation into a machete attack in a Clarecastle store in April.

Two men were assaulted and an innocent woman injured at Deasy’s Centra in Clarecastle during a Sunday morning attack on April 14th.

As part of their investigations into this serious incident, Gardaí are looking to speak with a particular witness.

Crime prevention officer, Caitriona Holohan stated, “This incident occurred after mass and the investigation team are anxious to speak to the owner or the driver of a White Opel / Vauxhall Insigna that was in the Ballyea/ Newhall area between 12:45pm- 1:15pm.

“If you are the owner or driver of this vehicle or you believe you know who is the owner or driver, please contact Ennis Garda Station as they would like to eliminate this vehicle from their enquiries,” she added.
