Gardai at Arklow have ruled out foul play after the body of a 37-year-old woman was taken from the sea four miles north of the town early yesterday morning. She was Ms Teresa Devereux, of Coolgreany, six miles from Arklow, who had been living in England for a number of years.
A Garda spokesman said she had returned home for the Hallowe'en holiday the day before the tragedy and had been staying with family and friends.
