Couple cut security tag from shoes and stole them

December 12, 2016

A Letterkenny couple who cut a tag from a pair of children’s shoes and then stole them have been ordered to pay the shop €20.

Patrick and Presilla McDonagh appeared at Letterkenny District Court charged with criminal damage and theft from TK Maxx on August 22nd last.

The court heard that Patrick had been seen on CCTV cutting off the tag and the Presilla was observed putting the shoes down her top.

Solicitor Frank Dorrian said it was an opportunist theft and because of the excellent CCTV footage they were “doomed to failure.”

Judge Kelly ordered the couple to send a postal order for €20 to TK Maxx.
