Gardaí in Letterkenny search for owner of cows in Gortlee estate
Gardaí in Letterkenny are seeking the owner of a large group of cattle that were seen roaming a housing estate in Ard Crannagh, Gortlee, on the morning of the Bank Holiday.
The police posted a request on social media, noting that while pets often wander at Halloween, it is unusual for farm animals to escape in this manner. They asked anyone with information to contact the Letterkenny Gardaí on 074‑9167100.
The appeal aims to locate the cattle’s owner and ensure the animals are safely returned.
