A woman was assaulted by a man who tried to force her into the boot of his car in Co Dublin.
Gardai are investigating after the woman, who is in her 60s, was approached by a man at around 7.30am this morning on the Blackhorse Avenue area of Dublin 7.
She managed to flee the scene and the car drove down Blackhorse Avenue towards Dublin city centre.
The car is described as a silver family saloon, and may have turned left and driven onto the Navan Road.
It is believed the suspect was wearing a white t-shirt and dark trousers.
A garda spokeswoman said: "Gardaí wish to speak to any person who was in the vicinity of Blackhorse Avenue on 6th January 2020 between 6am and 8am, or anyone who may have information about this incident.
"Gardaí are appealing to road users that were driving in the Blackhorse Avenue area, who may have camera footage.
"Anyone with information is asked to contact Blanchardstown Garda Station on 01 666 7000, the Garda Confidential Line on 1800 666 111 or any Garda station."
