Derry Rovers Football Club held a walk of light against drugs on Wednesday night.
Hundreds of people turned out for a vigil in Offaly last night in memory of a young boy and his grandaunt who died in an arson attack in the town over the weekend.
4-year-old Tadgh Farrell and 60-year-old Mary Holt were killed in a petrol bomb attack in Edenderry at Castleview Park on Saturday evening.
Prayers were said at the vigil, while people walked around the running track four times, to honour each year of Tadgh's life.
These people in Edenderry say the community is in mourning:
An online petition calling the Gardaí to open the Edenderry station full time has over 1,000 signatures.
Locals are taking to social media urging for action after the tragic loss of life on Saturday which gardaí believe was related to drug gangs in the area.
The garda station currently opens five days a week from 2pm - 5pm.
This man attended last night's vigil in the town and wants action taken now:
These people at the vigil say they're devastated:
