Two alleged burglars managed to escape gardai after a massive hunt in North Dublin last night.
Gardai swarmed the Ennafort and Howth Road areas in Raheny last night after the men were observed by officers leaving a house.
Many locals noticed the helicopter flying low over the area and St Anne's Park as a huge search got underway to find the two men who managed to evade the search teams.
Luckily nothing was taken from the house and nothing was damaged.
A spokesman told Dublin Live the investigation is ongoing.
They said: "Gardai are investigating a suspected attempted burglary that occurred at a house on Howth Road, Raheny, at approximately 7.45pm today Monday 16th September 2019.
"While on patrol, Gardai observed two males exiting a house.
"Gardai pursued the males on foot and a search of the area was conducted but the males were not located. It's understood there was no damage to the house and no items were taken. Investigations are ongoing."
