U2 guitarist The Edge was the hero for an American family on Wednesday, when they left a rucksack containing their passports outside Killiney DART station.
The Irish Daily Star reports that on checking in at Fitzpatrick's Castle Hotel, the father, daughter and son discovered they were missing the rucksack.
However, the paper says that it appears that the Edge was walking by the station and discovered the rucksack, which had the hotel's address on it.
He left a message at the hotel for the family and then arranged for the bag to be delivered.
The hotel’s reception manager, Luighsighe Kenny, told the paper that the Edge also put a signed U2 CD into the bag which read: "Hope your journey ends well."
"It was amazing because the father is such a huge U2 fan and went to see one of their live shows in the 80s," said Kenny. "They didn’t want really want to publicise it because The Edge had done it privately, but they said it was such a nice story that they agreed to put their photo on our Facebook page."
