Offaly residents warned of 'dodgy tradespeople' with empty pick-up truck
The vehicle has been spotted around the Tullamore area in recent days
Locals in Tullamore are being warned of "dodgy tradespeople" operating in and around the town.
It's understood an English-registered pick up truck has been moving through the town with what one resident described as "dodgy tradespeople" offering to do gardening and roofing work.
A resident told us: "It is a large pick up truck, the types that local authorities use rather than a Ford Ranger or VW Amarok type."
They added that they had looked in the back of the truck and it "had no tools, not even a little garden trowel."
Residents can report suspicious vehicles and people to gardaí.
