Motorists travelling on the old Dublin Galway road in the Ballinasloe/Ballydangan area early last Saturday morning are being asked for their help regarding stolen cattle.

Seven in-calf Friesian heifers were stolen from farmland in the area sometime between 2pm on last Friday afternoon and half past seven the following morning,

Dairy farmer Enda Doran says the land is a bit off the beaten track and it's likely the thieves waited until daylight sometime on Saturday morning to take the animals.

He says the tracks in the field show a jeep and trailer would have been used but other than that there are no leads so far.

Enda says it's very hard to understand what market there is for these high-quality heifers, but he believes they may have been 'stolen to order'
