GARDAÍ in Clare believe that thieves may have used a trailer to steal a BMW which had four flat tyres.

Between 7pm on Saturday March 19 and 10am on Sunday morning last a black 523 saloon BMW registration number 99 CE 5663 was stolen from a farm yard in Cregard, Barefield.

“This vehicle had four flat tyres and the owner believes that the car was not capable of being driven so it may have been taken away on a trailer,” says Crime Prevention Officer Sergeant Triona Brooks.

She urged anybody who may have seen anything to contact their local garda station.
