Gardai have launched an investigation after a north Dublin suburb was hit with a spate of car and property break-ins this week.
A number of similar incidents have been reported across the Marino area over a two-day nightmare for the locals.
Gardai were called after residents spotted three men attempting to break into a car on Brian Road in the early hours of Tuesday morning.
Additionally, a number of cars were also broken into in the early hours of Sunday in a number of areas including Shelmartin Avenue, Casino Road, and Croydon Green.
