Gardaí are appealing for information in relation to an incident of theft from a shopping centre in Kilkenny City that occurred in April 2025.
On this week’s episode of Crimecall on RTÉ, gardaí shared footage of the suspect that was taken from the retail unit impacted.
The footage, according to gardaí, showed the suspect lifting an item from a clothing rack and discarding its security tag.
She then puts the item into her own bag and is suspected to have done this multiple times before leaving the shop without paying.
Later, staff discovered that clothing worth several hundreds of euro were missing from the shop.
They also found several empty hangers and discarded security tags.
The suspect was described as being approximately 30 years of age, with long black hair, wearing a black top and bottoms, a green jacket and white runners.
