Local man Conor had been out shopping for Christmas presents for his family in the early hours of Christmas Eve when he loaded a taxi full of his bags. However, in a brief moment of forgetfulness, Conor exited the taxi without taking the presents with him, only realising his error as the vehicle drove away. To make matters worse, the driver who brought him home was now finished for the night and would not notice the bag full of Conor's purchases until the next morning when he awoke for his shift. Thankfully, there was enough Christmas cheer in the air for the driver to decide to bring the gifts to Store Street Garda station in the hope Gardaí could trace the owner.

The taxi app has today revealed that Irish passengers forgot a total of over 4,600 items in Freenow taxis over the past 12 months, making us Europe's most distracted country. Overall 30pc of all items lost across Europe were lost in Ireland, closely followed by Germany (17pc), Spain (16pc), Greece (15pc) and the UK (9pc) who all ranked in the top five most forgetful countries.

We deeply appreciate the honesty and integrity shown by our Lennox community member who acted responsibly and returned the lost rifle to our station. Their actions are a powerful reminder of the vital role our residents play in helping keep our neighborhoods safe. We're truly grateful for their quick thinking and commitment to doing what's right.
