Gardaí have renewed their appeal for information after an arson attack on the old Buncrana Leisure Centre on the town’s Shore Road shortly after 6 o’clock last Thursday evening.

Four males, there youths and an older man entered the building, and left a short time later via the Aileach Road in the direction of the Railway Road. A window had been broken on the front door in order to gain entry and a number of items were set alight within the pool area in the building.
