Clane gardai seek to identify thieves who stole €2,500 worth of designer perfume

Gardai in Clane are seeking help from members of the public to identify two men who stole thousands of euro worth of designer perfume from a premises in the town.

An appeal for information on the theft, which occurred last February, was broadcast on Crimecall on RTÉ One on Monday night.

During the appeal, CCTV footage was broadcast which shows the men inside the store and taking the merchandise before walking out.

The culprits can be seen approaching a display cabinet and removing the bottles of perfume and placing them into a paper bag on the floor.

"One of the men can be seen tampering with the lock on the cabinet. Once they gain access to the display, one man fills the bag while the other keeps lookout. Once the bag is filled they close the cabinet and they leave the shop with €2,500 worth of Chanel perfume," explained Garda Greg Freegrove.

The first suspect was wearing a black beanie hat, a black shiny jacket and blue jeans while the second man was wearing a long black jacket and navy tracksuit bottoms.

Anyone with information that might assist gardai is asked to contact Clane garda station or Crimecall at 1850 40 50 60.
