Clare Gardaí are investigating after a number of life saving devices at waterways across the county were stolen or vandalised.
The lifebuoys are located near rivers, lakes and seashores across Clare and are used as a rescue aid if someone gets into difficulty in the water.
However in recent weeks specialised ropes which form part of the lifesaving equipment have been taken.

Water Safety Development Officer for County Clare Liam Griffin says this is putting lives at risk and is a criminal offence to tamper with any such life saving equipment.
