Gardaí are appealing for information in relation to an attempted burglary in Burnfoot in the early hours of this morning.
The incident occurred at Grianan View, Carnshannagh, at approximately 3.53am when the ring (camera) doorbell at the property alerted the residents that someone was at their home.
“Upon viewing the footage, a figure can be seen on the doorstep,” a garda spokesperson said.
“They were well covered up, had a torch and wore gloves. They tried the door handle and seemed to then search outside for a spare key.”
No damage was caused and nothing was stolen during the incident.
If anybody travelled in that area in the early hours of this morning with a dash cam, they are urged to please make the footage available to Gardaí.
Any relevant information may be passed on to Buncrana Garda Station on 074-9320540. The Garda Confidential Line may also be contacted on 1800 666 111.
