    What's been going on this month? Every week there seems to be one day with a huge amount of houses being hit. I've noticed a slight increase in Gardai on foot patrol but tbh, I'm worried. From what I've heard, houses have been turned over in less than fifteen minutes.

    This was the same 2 and a half years ago. I was totally decimated by a burglary. Two cars and numerous other items.

    It seems as if these groups target specific towns for a certain period and move on. An increased garda presence in the town will hopefully see the scum go elsewhere.

    We are out in Mucklagh and a few weeks back there was lots of bikes stolen in the area all around the same time & at night. Seemed to be organised & not just young lads :mad:

    Funny, just scrolled past a headline on Facebook where guards stopped a van full of stolen bikes. With a lot of people cycling these days, racers are big business
