GARDAÍ IN BALBRIGGAN are seeking information on a hit-and-run over Christmas that left a man in a serious condition in hospital.
The man was struck by a vehicle on the R128 Skerries to Loughshinny road at around 1.30am on 27, shortly after St Stephen’s Day celebrations ended.
The 27-year-old was taken to Beaumont Hospital, where he remains in a serious condition.
Investigating gardai are particularly anxious to speak to anyone who may have observed the movements of a blue Volkswagen Transporter van 06-C-***** which left Strand Street, Skerries sometime after 1.30am on 27 December 2016 and travelled on the R128 towards Loughshinny.
Gardai are appealing for anyone with information to contact Balbriggan Garda Station on 01 8020510, the Garda Confidential Line 1800 666 111 or any Garda Station.

You’d think whoever did this to this poor person would have a conscience
06 C *****? Why not try 06 C 1, then 06 C 2, 06 C 3 etc etc until they get a match for a blue transporter. Cant take that long to check surely
Good grief. The CVRT or NVDB will list all 06 VW Transporters on the road…..they didn’t sell that many …how hard can it be to list them ?
They know the van and have the driver. If he denies it they need a witness to put him at the wheel. That’s what this is about. Everyone in Skerries knows who the driver is
…aha. ….that makes more sense. .
