Three people have been arrested in connection with burglaries in the Blackrock area of South Dublin.
Last night Gardaí on patrol in Tallaght noticed a vehicle acting suspiciously, which they followed along the M50.
It was then abandoned on the M1 with four people escaping on foot.
A man in his 20s and two teenage boys were arrested a short distance away and taken to Dundalk Garda Station - however Gardaí are still looking for a fourth person.
