Appeal for return of stolen baby lettuces before they die

An appeal has been made after 50,000 baby lettuce plants were stolen in Rush, Co Dublin, Ireland.



The vegetables were being stored in a truck owned by specialist lettuce growers D McNamara & Sons. However, the vehicle was taken from the company’s yard in north Dublin at around 6.20am on Friday, 20 March.

A post on Facebook by the company said that unless the 50,000 lettuce plants are returned and planted properly they will die. The stolen truck is a white, curtain side Mitsubishi Canter with a registration 07 WW 4693.



It is understood that the produce was to planted into a greenhouse over the weekend, before being distributed to supermarkets in a couple of weeks’ time.
