A prominent Ennis mark was the scene of a robbery of a young teenage boy in the past week.
On Thursday evening at 5:10pm, a thirteen year old boy who was in Tim Smythe Park in Ennis was verbally threatened by a young male to hand over money, which he did.
No physical injury was sustained by the teenager but the incident was said to be very traumatic according to local Gardaí.
“This is usually a busy time in the Park and if anyone saw this incident or anyone who has any information we would ask them to contact Ennis Garda Station on 0656848100,” crime prevention officer sergeant Triona Brooks outlined.
