The Clonard area of Wexford Town was the scene of a heartbreaking theft on Sunday, October 15th when a black pug puppy was taken from a 10-year-old boy.
The incident happened in the carpark of Aldi Clonard at approximately 3:00pm.
Speaking to Beat, the boy's mother, Natalja, said: "As I went in to buy food, my son stayed outside the supermarket with the puppy. A male then approached my son, grabbed the pup and ran away in the direction of a petrol station across the road."
Natalja added that there were a number of people in the area at the time that would have witnessed the incident.
A number of these are believed to have reported the theft to Gardaí.
Natalja, along with her son, also reported the incident to Gardaí who arrived at the scene a half hour later.
The male is described by Natalja as being in his teens. He wore a black jacket and was of fair complexion.
