Dean McCann: Family 'desperate' to find missing Dublin man last seen in Galway

The sister of a Dublin man who went missing last weekend has made an emotional plea for help in tracing her brother.

Dean McCann, 28, was last seen in Eyre Square, Galway around 9.30 on Sunday morning.

Dean had also been in Cork on Saturday evening and was driving a grey BMW, Galway Beo reports.

Dean is described as being 5’11 in height, with light blue eyes, braces, a beard, pale skin and dark hair.

He also has two distinct tattoos on both of his arms, one of a wolf and a moon and mountains, and another of a wing.

The Dublin man is thought to have been wearing a super dry navy puffer jacket with green check patterns on the shoulders, black Adidas tracksuit bottoms with white stripes down the side, and black Adidas runners, with blue and potentially some other coloured stripes on the side of the shoe.

His sister said that Dean had told her that he wanted to go where “people needed help” in a phone call with her brother on Sunday morning, and urged people to keep an eye out for the missing man in shelters, hostels and other places of refuge.

She urged anybody with information to contact Santry Garda Station or Galway Garda Station on 091 538 000.

In a heartfelt online appeal his sister Tara said that her family had been living a neverending nightmare since her brother’s disappearance, and that the family have been left “heartbroken and worried”.

She said: “We are so desperate to know where he is, it feels like a nightmare that’s just not ending. My mam and dad and myself and my other brother are so heartbroken and worried.

“All we know about his whereabouts is that he was in Galway on Sunday and wanted to go where people need help so please keep shelters, hostels, places of refuge in mind, any areas that come to mind."
