EACH WEEKDAY EVENING, TheJournal.ie brings you five things you should know before you head out the door.
1. #SEIZURE Gardaí have seized cash, artefacts and documents from homes in Cork and Limerick. The seizures are part of a European investigation into the thefts of rhino horns in Dublin earlier this year.
2. #CLEARED Coronation Street actor Michael Le Vell has been found not guilty of rape and sexual offences. A jury of eight women and four men found the actor, who plays Kevin Webster on the soap, innocent of all 12 charges.
3. #PRIORY HALL The Taoiseach Enda Kenny says that he has “no objection” to meeting the Priory Hall residents. Kenny added that he needed ” a little time” to put a meeting together, but noted the “tragedy” of Stephanie Meehan’s case.
4. #BODY The body of a man in his 40s was found on a beach in Meath this morning. Gardaí are investigating the circumstances of the find at Mornington Strand.
