We seem to have become a target area for burglaries recently. To combat this we should report all suspicious activities to Gardai, for example...
- shifty looking strangers loitering in vehicles or on foot
- unusual vehicles & work activity in neighbours driveways outside working hours
- strangers acting suspiciously in neighbour’s gardens
Try to take note of vehicle registrations, make, model & color, as much detail as possible to include in your report

So that you can report quickly store this phone number for Balbriggan Gardai on your mobile phone...
