The late John Michael McSweeney.

GARDAÍ have renewed a public appeal for assistance in tracing the whereabouts of a missing 73-year-old Limerick man John McSweeney.

An Garda Síochána renewed the appeal this evening (Tuesday), urging landowners, people who may have buildings or out houses, and people who own vacant houses in the Athea and surrounding areas to check them to see if they have been used.

73-year-old Athea man John McSweeney has been missing from his home in County Limerick since the afternoon of Saturday January 6, 2024, Gardaí say.

He is described as being approximately 5′ 7″ in height, slim build, bald, and has a missing front tooth.

When last seen, Mr McSweeney was wearing a black coat, a black peaked cap, and wellington boots.
