Thieves steal car with flat wheel from Longford motorist

A motorist who was forced to pull up along a busy Longford roadside with a puncture  got a nasty surprise when thieves brazenly took off with his car.  

The incident happened after the driver left the car parked along the hard shoulder at Ballyminion, Longford last Wednesday, to try and obtain a jack in order to fix the puncture.

However, when he returned shortly after midday the car,  a silver Hyundai Accent (01-LD-865), was gone.
