Burglary on Racecourse Road, Dundalk, Louth on the 12/6/18

The Gardaí at Dundalk Garda Station are investigating two separate burglaries that occurred in the area on Tuesday 12th June 2018.

Two suspects were caught on camera in the garden of a house on Blackrock Road between 10.50am and 11.30am. Gardaí believe the suspects gained entry to this house by smashing the rear patio window. A short time later on Racecourse Road, a woman was at home in her kitchen. She saw two men walking by a window, she ran upstairs to look out the window for these suspects. The woman heard glass smashing and could hear the men ransacking some rooms in the house. The woman locked herself into a room and phoned a friend she knew was nearby. The woman’s friend ran towards the house and saw the two suspects in the house. The suspects fled from the scene and the friend gave chase. They ran down Racecourse Road towards a gold coloured Audi car that was waiting for them. The car had a yellow rear registration number plate, YR06PCR. The friend flagged down a passing motorist and they perused the Audi Car but lost them at the Ballymascanlon Roundabout.
