The body of a young Donegal man has been found in a river in Co Galway.
Mathew Lougue, from Malin Head, who was in his 30s, had been missing for more than a week.
Mathew had been living in Galway recently but had been missing since last weekend.
A search was launched on the River Corrib when a man was spotted in the water near the docks.
The man was taken to hospital but was pronounced dead a short time later.
However, because the body contained no identification, it took a number of days to identify the deceased.
However the body was then found to be that of tragic Mathew.
The late Mr Lougue of Keenagh, Malin Head, will be buried after funeral mass at St Mary’s Church in Lagg, Malin tomorrow.
