A land and sea search for a man missing from Inisheer, the smallest of the Aran islands, has resumed. | |
It is believed the man was in his 40s and from Londonderry. | |
John Falvey, divisional controller of Valentia coastguard, said the man was last seen on a pier at 2100 BST on Saturday. | |
"He wasn't seen entering the water at any location so we are searching the whole island as well as the sea areas off it." | |
The alarm was raised on Sunday afternoon and helicopter, lifeboat and the coastguard, as well as gardaĆ and islanders, took part in the search. | The alarm was raised on Sunday afternoon and helicopter, lifeboat and the coastguard, as well as gardaĆ and islanders, took part in the search. |
