A local community has raised more than €500 for an elderly woman who had her Christmas pension stolen from her coat by heartless thieves. “I said I have some money here and said hang on, I’ve got money in my coat in the hall,” she said. “I feel like it’s not me they’re talking about, it didn’t happen to me,” she said, adding that she was shocked that she had been targeted. Asked about the money raised so far for her, the woman was at pains to insist she was not asking for it.
