Gardai in Castleisland are appealing for help in their investigations with a couple of day-light attacks on cars in the locality during Easter week.
The two incidents happened on Monday and Tuesday evenings of last week and in the Kilbannivane Cemetery area.
In both cases cars were parked outside the cemetery walls on the popular walking route and the damage was discovered later on when the owners returned to the vehicles.
The cars had windows smashed in and access was gained to the boot areas of both cars.
Locals have reported seeing a silver coloured, West of Ireland registered car in the area of the crimes and have given a detailed description of a female seen in the area at the time. While no valuables were available to the brazen thieves, the damage to the cars and the trauma to the owners was considerable.
Garda investigators are continuing with their enquiries and would appreciate any scrap of information which might lead them to the culprits.
One of the raids was as early in the evening as 5-30pm and the other one was carried out slightly later on the following.
Anyone with any piece of information can ring Castleisland Garda Station on 066 71 41 204 or the Garda Confidential line on: 1800 666 111
