"MISSING DEFIBILLATOR UPDATE Unfortunately the defibrillator located at Oak Family Medical practice also known as Dr Morans has not been returned and a statement had been made to he Gardaí.
The defibrillator in question is simular to the one in the picture and was donated by Winnie Lyons of New Oak Estate in remembrance of her late husband Mick Lyons Snr to the people of Carlow after being unable to host the annual Mick Lyons fishing competition that year. We are appealing for any information on its whereabouts. If you know anything please contact ourselves or the Gardaí so that we can return the defibrillator that the Lyons family so thoughtfully purchased to save lives within our community."

Anyone with nay information in relation to the missing defibrillator is urged to provided information to the first reposnders.
