Gardaí in Dublin are appealing for the public's help in identifying the last movements of a Polish man found dead in a recycling truck.

The body of Heryk Piotrowski (43) was found by staff at the refuse and recycling plant at Ballymount on Friday.

Gardaí believe Mr Piotrowski was in the Dame Street area between 7 and 10pm on Thursday 22nd.

He was also seen on the South Quays in the early hours of Friday morning.

The truck he was found in had been used to collect recycling bins from the city centre.

Gardaí have made contact with his family in Poland. They're now appealing to anyone with any information about his whereabouts before his death to come forward.

The garda press office is circulating images of the dead man, in hopes that someone will recognise him and help piece together his last movements.
