A top-of-the-range jeep which was thought may have been in Derry after being stolen in Donegal Town has been recovered – in Letterkenny.
The Mitsubishi L200 Crewcab – worth more than €20,000 – belongs to DMG Motors and was taken in the early hours of Wednesday morning.
The jeep was last seen in Burt and was believed to have been driven across the border into Derry.
Gardai are working on the theory it was used in a number of attempted break-ins in the Killybegs area.
It may have also been used to trasnport stolen equipment into Derry, offloaded and then abandoned in Letterkenny yesterday afternoon.
Rory McGinty, of DMG Motors, had offered a reward for the return of the vehicle.
“We are just delighted that we have it back and that it is not damaged,” he said.
