Post mortem to follow Kilkee body recovery

A post mortem is to be carried out on a body recovered in Kilkee on Saturday. The recovery was made by the Doolin unit of the Irish Coastguard. The body had been spotted in the water earlier on Saturday afternoon and was recovered at approximately 5.30pm. The body was handed over to Gardai and the HSE before being removed to University Hospital Limerick.

The recovery follows a search operation for David McMahon from Lissycasey since he was reported missing on September 9. That operation has since been called off.
