A relative of Tom Niland has revealed how community support has helped relieve the sense of “anger” and “helplessness” of the brutal incident.
Michael Walsh hailed those volunteers who helped yesterday as investigators combed through an area nearby the Sligo home of his cousin in a bid to gather evidence on the burglary gang who left the OAP for dead last month.
Michael explained that while he is taking it “one day at a time”, he fears the worst as Tom lays in a coma.
