When he was approached he ran out of the cul-de-sac. He is described as a white man, about 30 years old, of stocky build with a moustache. He wore a dark green ‘beanie’ hat, a dark coloured barbour-type jacket and jeans.

In another incident in Louth (incident 185 of December 14), there was an attempted burglary in Staines Way.

This occurred some time between 9.30am and 12.50pm when a conservatory door was forced. No entry to the property was gained.
