There were two reports online in the last few months of a man following women near this Dart Station.
Unfortunately I think this is the 4th incident in a month, there were two women earlier in the month. Then a man posted on facebook on Sunday evening saying his wife had been followed with their 4 year old child as he walked a bit behind with a buggy. When the pervert saw she wasn’t alone he ran off. Very scary stuff.
That is a good lead Laura, at least it is something for the Gardai to go on, he needs to be caught, everyone using that Dart Station should be on the look-out for this guy, the next Lady may not be so lucky..
Yes there’s been several in the area of late including today at Killiney dart station
A protest was held tonight outside the local police station, when people were there a man was calling into the station with his daughter in school uniform to report an attempted attack on this young girl! Not 100% sure but think thats the 6th attempt in a month or so, everyone in the area is petrified!
have your say
