The Mayor of Ennis is urging people not to damage or vandalise vital life-saving equipment along the county’s waterways.
A schoolgirl has been hospitalised after entering the river Fergus in Ennis yesterday afternoon, when the river was high and fast-flowing.
Two men who were walking by the Maid of Erin raised the alarm before locating a life-ring which they used to pull the teenager to safety.
