A wanted criminal who was on the run from Northern Ireland and living in West Donegal has been arrested.
CASEY MORGAN: ‘EXTREMELY VIOLENT’ – SAYS PSNI
Casey Morgan, 18, was detained overnight and has appeared in the High Court in Dublin on an extradition warrant.
Morgan, who was described by police as a violent thief, held up a chemist shop armed with a knife.
The public in Dungloe and Burtonport had been living in fear after it emerged that Morgan and convicted rapist Joe McCabe had been living in a caravan in Burtonport.
McCabe, 29, handed himself into police in the North following the publicity of his case.
But Morgan went on the run and is believed to have fled back to West Donegal.
Morgan was described as a high-risk offender by the PSNI who had warned members of the pubic not to approach him.
He has been remanded to St Patrick’s Institution overnight ahead of a bail application tomorrow.
