WHEELBARROW STOLEN IN NOBBER.
TOWN GRINDS TO STANDSTILL
The Town of Nobber, Co. Meath has been paralysed this week after the mainstay of the local economy went missing, presumed stolen.
The wheel barrow that for decades has been the lifeline to the town was stolen at approximately 7.00pm in the grounds of the town's church, just after the commencement of Saturday evening mass. "This is a deliberate and premeditated attack on the people of this community, striking directly into the heart of our populace. The effect this will have on our lively-hood will take years to put right, I just don't understand why anyone would do such a thing", said local councillor Jim Heffernan.

to Dublin for initial aid, and we hope the Taoiseach will visit the region and see up-close the damage it has done to our municipality. We want to be self-sufficient and self-determining, but this initial aid is paramount to getting us back on our feet. This two-year strategy will hopefully bring us beyond this catastrophe and into a new era of prosperity. We aim to have a garden hoe for every household in this town, a new shovel for the school and acquire two horses that will have a huge impact on high-speed trade links between Nobber and the Capital".
The town Garda was not available for comment as he was on a fact-finding mission to Kells. The culprits are still at large.
