Gardaí have issued a Child Rescue Alert (CRI) this morning after three children from Roscommon went missing yesterday.
The children, Killian (8), Elisha (6) and Derbhla (2), are thought to be with their mother Fiona Gregg (41) and were last seen at their home at Hawthorn Avenue, Ballyforan, Roscommon, at approximately 3.00pm yesterday.
They are believed to be travelling in a blue Nissan Almera (registration number 01 G 7051). Gardaí have asked the public not to approach the car but to call 999 or 112 immediately if they see it. They are also asking for anyone who may have spotted the car overnight to come forward.
Superintendent David Taylor spoke to
Newstalk this morning. He said: “Gardaí have reasonable belief that there is an immediate and serious risk to the health and welfare of the children involved.”
The Gardai have released these pictures of the family.
UPDATE (8.46am): The CRI alert has been cancelled after the PSNI located the three children and their mother “safe and well” in Northern Ireland.
UPDATE (9.05AM): Mrs Gregg has been arrested under the Mental Health Act, and the children have been taken into care according to
The Mirror.
