Search operations for a man (20) missing since entering the water in Wexford Quay on Sunday will continue on Tuesday.
The man, named to local media as Brandon Roche, was last seen entering the water on Wexford Quay in the early hours of Sunday morning.
In a statement to South East Radio on Monday afternoon, family member Keith Murphy said it had been “a difficult few days” and appealed for help from the public.
“If anybody over the coming days have any time to offer, we will be conducting searches along the coastline, and we’d be grateful for anybody who can participate,” he said.
Coast Guard units and the RNLI resumed the search on Monday, with assistance from the Garda water unit and Slaney Search and Rescue. However, it ended on Monday evening without success.
The family said the search will resume on Tuesday. They said they are in need of drones with cameras.
