A MUM of three went missing from a large hen party in Carlingford, Co Louth, last night.
Her pals have since made an appeal to the public to help trace her whereabouts.
Ruth Maguire, 30, was one of 32 women on the hen in the town and her friends discovered she was missing when they returned to the house they were staying in.
Ruth’s friend Katrina O’Hare said the group “all headed home to house we are staying in” at 11.30pm.
The house is less than five minutes from Taaffe’s bar, where the hen party had been socialising beforehand.
Within minutes of returning to the house, they realised Ruth was not with them.
Katrina said: “This is totally out of character.”
The group, the majority of whom are from Belfast, began searching for her straight away but couldn’t find her.
A doorman heard her say she might make her way home to Newcastle, Co Down.
However, her partner and children had gone to Belfast.
This morning he drove back down to Newcastle and realised she had not returned home.
Her phone is turned off and her coat was found in the bar today.
Ruth is tall, slim, has blonde hair and was wearing a black T-shirt saying ‘Member of Irish Bride drinking team’ and black jeans.
