As part of the investigation, Gardaí are reviewing CCTV footage from the Northside of the city with a view to tracing the movements of the suspected vehicle in and out of the Moyross area.

As the claims broke on social media shortly after the alleged incident, Gardai asked members of the public to contact either Henry Street or Mayorstone Garda stations with any information relevant to the matter on 061 212400 or 061 456980.
