The dark evenings saw tools robbed from a premises in the Tullahought area.

In addition, a car was damaged while traveling when it was struck by an object associated with the Halloween celebration from a passing car between Coolagh and Windgap.

Elsewhere, gardaí in Kilkenny have arrested a male on suspicion of Criminal Damage. During the arrest, fireworks were discovered.

“Questions to be answered, charges await,” a garda spokesperson commented.

Furthermore, a BMW coupé was impounded by gardaí in Johnstown after a roadside inspection uncovered an engine which appeared to differ from the vehicle's original specification.

The Roads Policing Unit were in the area when the older BMW attracted their attention due to its almost illegible registration plates and an extremely loud and smoky exhaust.
