Gardaí in both the Clonmel and Nenagh Districts have recorded numerous incidents of theft in the last fortnight, particularly fuel theft.

In the Clonmel District, there has been a large increase in the reports of fuel and green diesel thefts from vehicles.

Earlier this month, two agricultural vehicles in the Brittas South Lodge area of Carrick-on-Suir had €700 worth of green diesel syphoned from them.

Fuel was taken from commercial machinery parked overnight at the Railway in Kilsheelan in the amount of €600 from 4 vehicles, as well as damage inflicted to them.

In the Cappanagrane area of Mullinahone between August 8th and 9th, approximately €800 worth of kerosene heating fuel was reported stolen from a domestic tank.

There was also a marked increase in property theft.

In Clonmel, a Williams Trailer, described as an 8 x 5 aluminium floor with mesh wrap, was reported stolen from the Frank Drohan Road.

In the Nenagh District, Gardaí received a report that a power washer was stolen from a farm at Clonmona, Rathcabbin in the early hours of August 11th.
