Gardaí are appealing for information after a car was deliberately crashed into a tree and set alight in Inishowen at the weekend.
They are appealing for witnesses and dash-cam footage in connection with the incident that occurred in the area of Gaddyduff, Clonmany, in the early hours of last Friday, August 8th at approximately 3.10am.
Gardaí received a report in relation to four males who were observed smashing the window of a car and they then proceeded to crash it into a tree before setting it alight. When Gardaí and the fire services arrived at the scene the car was on fire and nobody was at the scene.
Describing the incident as ‘sinister’, Garda Niall Maguire has appealed to anyone who may have been in the area with a dash-cam around that time to make the footage available to Gardaí.
“If anyone can assist our investigation with relevant information, we ask them to contact Gardaí in Buncrana on 074 9320540,” he said.
The Garda Confidential Line may also be reached on 1800 666 111.
