GARDAÍ in Killaloe are appealing for witnesses following a string of criminal offences close to the Limerick border. 

The first incident took place on Wednesday morning, March 11, in the Convent Hill area. From here, two men entered a house through an unlocked front door, subsequently stealing car keys. 

The men opened this vehicle and rifled through it, according to gardaí. 

Just three days later, on Saturday, March 14, a second burglary occurred in Shantraud Woods at 3:40am.

It is understood that the culprits gained access to a property through an unlocked front door. Car keys were stolen from the home and the suspects made off with a grey Volvo S40 11TS, which is still missing. 

Also on Saturday, another incident took place at a home near Shantraud Woods. 

Throughout the course of this offence, culprits attempted to gain entry to the property but fled once disturbed by the homeowner.
