Gussie had gone to Coopers Bar in St Joseph Street with friends on that Friday.

Gussie was captured on CCTV leaving the pub wearing dark blue jeans, a blue top and a red, white and blue Adidas jacket and crossing the road towards his friend’s house.

However, he walked towards a laneway known locally as School Alley Lane.

He was never seen again.

He is described as being 5’10″, of thin build, around ten stone, of pale complexion with short fair hair.

Aengus’s family and gardaí are appealing for anyone who may have seen Gussie or have useful information and who have not been in contact previously, to do so now.

Gardaí are also appealing to anyone who may have seen Gussie on the Friday night or early the following morning to come forward, especially taxi drivers in the Limerick area.

Anyone with information is asked to contact Roxboro Road Garda Station on 061 214340, the Garda Confidential Line on 1800 666 111 or any Garda station.
