    Very sad story in the press this evening, Gardai have issued an appeal to identify a man who was found dead last September in Galway, but who has yet to be identified

    http://www.independent.ie/irish-news/news/can-you-identify-this-man-found-dead-in-galway-31473881.html
    A facial reconstruction image of a man found dead in Co Galway last year has been released to the public.

    Gardai sought the assistance of Dundee University in creating the image after an extensive ivestigation failed to reveal the man's identity.

    The body of the man was found near Barna on the evening of September 27 last year.

    The death is not being treated as suspicious.

    The man is described as being between 30 and 40 years of age, approximately 6ft tall with black hair.

    Of a broad/strong build, the man was wearing a gold bracelet watch (Caravelle by Bulova) when he was found.

    He was also wearing a black leather jacket, blue jeans and white and blue ‘Athletech’ runners.

    Very sad story, hard to believe someone could be found dead and almost a year later no one has come forward to identify him.

    I've shared it on my facebook, maybe if others do it might get some exposure, so the man can be identified and given a funeral?

    Jesus-that is sad. R.I.P Someone must want to know where he is.

    Shared. I hope he's identified to give some poor family some closure.
