Crime Prevention

Gardaí would like to advise members of the public to lock doors and windows when leaving their homes as part of our ‘Light up Lock up Campaign’.

Gardaí would also like to advise motorists never to leave their windows open when their vehicles are unattended and not to leave valuable items on display in vehicles. Gardaí would also like to remind persons on bicycles, not to leave them outside shops, gyms or any premises without locking them securely, as this type of crime is on the increase.
