Gardai have recovered human remains during ongoing searches for a missing man in Co Meath.
Investigations are ongoing following the discovery of remains in Dunboyne on Tuesday.
It's believed the body was discovered during ongoing searches for Terry Byrne, who has been missing since last February.
Extensive searches have been carried out in the area since the dad of two went missing from his home on February 6, and his photograph recently appeared on Deliveroo Rider Delivery Bags as part of a national Bring Them Home Campaign.
Gardai have confirmed the uncovering of the remains and said in a statement: "Gardai are investigating following the discovery of human skeletal remains in Dunboyne, Co. Meath following searches over the last number of days.
"The remains have been removed to the State Pathologists Office in Whitehall, Dublin for further examinations.
"The scene was preserved for a technical examination.
"No further information is available at this time."
