Gardaí are appealing for witnesses following a criminal damage incident at a well-known commercial property in Ennis. 

The offence took place on Saturday, September 13 at the top of O'Connell Street in the town. Gardaí, who obtained CCTV footage, said the recording shows "a group of men" using a ladder to climb up to the first floor of the building. 

One of these men is then captured on CCTV pulling away the garden boxes on the property, where they then "crashed" onto the ground, according to Gardaí. 

After this strange incident, the group left and walked down O'Connell Street, in the direction of Ennis Cathedral. 

It is not yet known just how many men were present during this offence or what time it occurred. 

Gardaí are now appealing to anyone that may have witnessed or videoed this incident to come forward. 

If you do have footage or if you know who these offenders are, please contact Ennis Garda Station on 065 6848100.
