The man also tried to steal cigarettes, but was unsuccessful
Gardaí are investigating after a petrol station in Newbridge was burgled last week.
The incident occurred at Maxol Petrol Station, Ballymanny between Friday 6 November at 11:47pm and Saturday 7 November at 12:05pm.
It was one of a number of crimes outlined by Kilcock Garda Lennie Donlon on Kildare Today's Crimewatch segment.
During the incident, a vehicle described as been a silver coloured 'Ford C Max' entered the forecourt of the petrol station.
One of the males got out of the car and smashed the front window of the station and gained accessed to the priority.
According to Garda Donlon, the man then proceeded to take "several parcels from behind the counter" and then also pulled at the door of the cigarette machine in an attempt to steal cigarettes, but was unsuccessful.
The culprit then exited the shop via the front smashed window and left the forecourt.
Gardaí say no direction of travel is known after that.
Gardaí in Newbridge are looking to talk to talk to anybody that may have been in the forecourt of the Maxol at Ballymanny or in the vicinity of the garage to contact them.
Anyone that may have seen the incident or the vehicle involved is also asked to contact Newbridge Garda Station on 045 440180
