Both occurred on Monday afternoon.
Gardai in North Kildare are hunting three men, who may have been involved in two burglaries.

They were disturbed and left the scene in a blue saloon, which may have been a Saab.
Between 15 and 20 minutes later, in Thomastown, Johnstownbridge, a house was burgled and ransacked.
Witnesses report a car with a similar description in the area.
