Gardaí in Bagenalstown are warning locals to be cautious of people calling to their homes – especially in rural areas.
It’s after they received a number of reports from people of two men with a trailer driving into people’s front yards today, reportedly looking for scrap metal.
It’s understood the same two – who are not believed to be from the locality – had called to one of the houses close to midnight last week.
Bagenalstown Gardaí currently have a vehicle out patrolling the area but they’re urging you not to entertain anyone calling to your house at the moment that you don’t know.
