One of the containers stolen from the farm. An Garda Síochána

Trailer loaded with containers of liquid nitrogen stolen from Co Cork farm

Gardaí are urging anyone who may come across the containers not to interfere with them.

GARDAÍ IN EAST Cork are investigating the theft of five containers of liquid nitrogen from a farmyard.

The containers were stolen using a trailer that was also taken from the same farm with gardaí saying other farming machinery was also taken.

The robbery took place at the Killeagh farm the early hours of Tuesday 5 May, sometime between 1.00am and 7.30am. 

Liquid nitrogen is colourless, odourless and tasteless but can cause burns when in contact with skin. There is also a risk of suffocation if the substance is released in a confined space. It is used in farming for freezing.

Gardaí are urging anyone who may have been in the area at the time to contact them and have also asked anyone who may come across the containers not to interfere with them and to instead contact gardaí.

    The usual, full of jargon and conditioning but no bite.
    The landlord can get rid of most tenants fairly promptly and suffer little .
    It’s like the refuse for yrs in this country, always a problem but took a generation to fix .

    When was the refuse fixed Eugene? As far as I can see it’s an unregulated mess.

    If you find out the landlord is not paying the mortgage you take it on instead of paying rent, change the locks and tell the landlord to F off.

    You can then blame yourself for not paying the rent

    What happens is you get a letter of termination after you’ve just paid the rent for the month ahead. That gives you 4 weeks to find an alternative accommodation. You spend the next 4 week running around like headless chicken, competing with 20-30 other people trying to rent the same property each time. 3 weeks into the chase, you realize you have to either offer way more than the asking price, bribe the estate agent, or offer to pay few months rent in advance in order to secure a property. So finally you get an email alert, take time off work, meet the agent in the next half an hour, hand in all your personal and financial details to some mickey mouse company who doesn’t have slightest idea how to protect it and only than you’re finally allowed to move in. And than you say goodbye to your deposit. That’s what happens.
