GARDAÍ are investigating an incident where two men attempted to steal a car in Letterkenny’s Old Town on Saturday night.
A resident in the area heard a bang and looked out only to see a man in the back of her parked car outside. Another man was standing nearby.
Upon realising that they had been disturbed, the two men jumped the fence and fled.
The men were described as being in their 20’s and one was wearing a black jumper. The rear windscreen of the car had been smashed during the course of the incident.
A garda spokesperson confirmed that nothing was stolen.
