Good Samaritan hands in cash found in Athlone car park

A sum of cash was handed into Athlone Garda Station by an honest person who found it in the Fairgreen car park in the town last Friday evening. 

While he did not disclose the amount involved, for obvious reasons, Sergeant Andrew Haran said he would like to return the sum of money to the person who had lost it.

'We seldom get to give things back to people so we would like to highlight this to see if we can find the person who lost it and also to acknowledge the honesty of the individual who handed it in,' he said. 

If anyone lost money in that area they can get in touch with Sergeant Haran at Athlone Garda Station on 090 64 98550.
