    TBH, if I seen a 14 year old walking/cycling down the street naked I'd think it was some sort of prank so would not report it.

    So many circumstances and questions to this case. Why was he naked? If it was foul play, why was he walking/cycling naked? Why was he there in the first place?

    The biggest question of all, why did it take the PSNI one whole week to find him considering he was found where he was last seen?

    RTE are reporting he was found in a storm drain and that wasn't accessible earlier in the week due to high tides

    I really hope this turns out to be a tragic accident with no foul play. That still seems to be the message from PSNI but I presume autopsy will shed more light.

    from what I gather from local up there, his body was found in a storm drain that had already been searched. I am now thinking his death wasn't a tragic accident. I think if an area had been searched and then a body shows up, it may mean he was dumped there very recently . RIP Noah Donohue.

    It does look really suspect, to be missing for so long and now found close to where he went missing.

    I'm just hoping, for the parents sake it wasn't foul play. Hopefully the circumstances will become clearer. If the police suspect foul play surely they would be launching murder investigation by now.

    As bizarre a case as it is, foul play being ruled out for now.

    Acquired brain caused hyperthermia and the intense need to cool down. Paradoxical undressing followed.

    Entered water to cool down even further, unfortunately swept into storm drain, came to rest in a area unable to be searched previously in the week due to tides.

    May he rest in peace; such a sad story.

    Also to those who have absolutely zero evidence of any foul play to constantly harp on about it: you should be ashamed of yourselves.

    Sounds about right. Although there'll be a few who will claim it was a unionist paramilitary path he hit his head on.

    This is so sad. It's reading like a very unfortunate sequence of events. Poor little fella. RIP.

    Thoughts are with his family and the people who spotted him also.

    If you're so sure about that can you go get any picture or video evidence for it... or let police know where it's happening?

    Can people not hold off on speculation at least until a post-mortem is carried out?

    RIP young Noah.

    What a cruel world we live in. My heart goes out to his family, especially his poor mother.

    As for the rumours. They are rubbing salt in the wounds. There has been a lot of sectarian tension bubbling in North Belfast over the past month which has probably fuelled the rumours.

    I don’t however think there will be any gloating or celebrating over this. Worth remembering the sicko arrested/charged on suspicion of improper use of public electronic communications network is from “our” side of the house.

    Still no word on the Post Mortem. Funeral is tomorrow.

    Being from North Belfast and Noah attending my old school it's been on my mind a lot.

    Think it's been disgraceful the speculation that has arisen on social media about this. Some people have got themselves so excited that they want this to be a sectarian murder. Obviously people who have no idea on the consequences of that happening. North Belfast is the most divided area in the north, it doesn't need more speculation.

    Can't get his mother out of my head.

    Didn't see the thread about this.
    that poor lad, whole life ahead of him. Doubt his family would get over this, every parents worst nightmare. Hope neighbour's and friends hold them close.



    RIP

    Fcuk Putin. Glory to Ukraine!

    A petition for inquiry into psni handling of this investigation has reached 22.5K....

    Still no media coverage

    I'm curious as to why do you say no media coverage?

    I just watched UTV news report on an appeal by Michelle O'Neill for anyone with any information on this to come forward.

    Given this tragedy occured in Belfast, an appeal for info on the most widely watched news show in NI is surely the most appropriate channel of appeal?

    Michelle O'Neill has it as a pinned tweet and it is subject to a fairly broad social media push on top of that.
    The inquest is in January afaik and there is ongoing appeals for info.
    The actions of the PSNI here need to be assessed and accounted for, and a full accounting of Noah's end needs to be formulated to give his mam some certainty as to what happened.

    But, demonizing the media for a lack of coverage?
    Seems odd, when it's quite widespread.

    whats the allegation here, was it something about him being killed by a loyalist who then committed suicide a few days later?

    There’s allegations of such. I am not sure the two events are linked, they may well be. There was a young boy of a similar age attacked, beaten and robbed in the same area about a month before, grown men involved.

    It’s not beyond the realms of possibility that Noah suffered a similar fate, then again the lack of witnesses and the bizarre sightings leave huge question marks over his final known movements. How he ended up in a storm drain is the most baffling and there is a chance he was lured there, however that is just me speculating.

    The behaviour of some of the residents whose gardens back onto the storm drain has also been raised. What is disheartening about the police investigation is the fact they lied about doing a leaflet drop when they did no such thing. It’s such a sad tragedy and his family deserve some form of closure.
