Galway Bay fm newsroom - Gardaí are conducting door to door enquiries following an attempted break in at a house in the city this morning.
The search is on for three suspects following the incident which happened between 9 and 10 o' clock at an occupied house in the Claddagh.
A young man was in the house at St. Ignatius terrace this morning when his dog began barking, alerting him to the attempted break in.
The alleged intruders broke a window at the door to the rear of the house before hearing the dog and fleeing the scene.

One is described as being between 13 and 15 years of age wearing dark clothing, the second is roughly 5'10 wearing a pale blue jumper.
