Local media reported that two men dragged the dead man’s body to Carlo’s post office on Friday.

The staff were confused and the two men fled after being questioned, leaving the deceased behind.

The bizarre incident is now being investigated by Irish police Gardai, who said they are investigating the “unexplained death of an elderly man”.

The drama unfolded after a man visited a Hosey store on Staplestown Road around 11:30 a.m. Friday and asked if he could withdraw someone else’s weekly pension, according to the Irish Times.

However, they were told that the pensioner must be present in order for the payment to be made.

Later, two men tried to withdraw the pension and their dead body. The deceased is believed to have been in his late 60s and lived near the post office.

A source told the Irish Independent: “They pulled a cardigan over his face, put a hat over his head, and carried the body to the post office.”

A woman who works in a beauty and nail salon across the road from the post office described the incident as “unbelievable”.

She told the Irish Times, “That’s all anybody talks about… It’s unbelievable.”

Fine Gael Color Fergal Brown said the incident was “extremely shocking and disturbing to everyone locally,” especially to the staff at the post office.

He said the deceased was “a very respectable, respectable and beloved man who does not offend anyone.”

“It’s unrealistic. You view him as a rational person, but whoever did that was not rational.

Police have sealed off a house on nearby Bullerton Road as the investigation into the accident continues.

The body of the deceased was recovered from the scene on Friday night.
