Good to see there are still some kind people in the world.

The Dáil Bar in Galway city are offering a reward to the good Samaritan who returned the wallet of an employee of the bar, who lost it while supporting Ireland at Euro 2016.

John O’ Connor, a long-standing barman in the Dáil Bar, is one of a number of staff from the pub cheering on the Boys in Green and he lost his wallet amidst all the excitement in France.

On Monday evening, a man called into the bar and dropped back John’s wallet with not a thing missing from it, including all of the cash that was contained within.

The only thing to connect John to the bar was a business card for the Dáil Bar, where it was left by an anonymous stranger who left no contact details.

The Dáil Bar want to recognise the generosity of the stranger in question, so if you are that stranger or if you have any idea who it might be, they want to get in touch and offer a reward.

If you have any information you can send a direct message to The Dáil Bar Galway Facebook Page or send them a tweet and fingers crossed the hero of the hour can be given due recognition for an incredibly sound act.
