An investigation's under way after a woman was held captive in her Portmarmock home in north Dublin.
This burglary and false imprisonment happened at a house in the Strand Road on Thursday when five masked men burst in.
They locked the woman who was inside the home into a room as they searched through the house.
After they left, she remained locked in the room for a long time until a relative later found her - she wasn't injured.
Gardaí are appealing for information.
In particular, they're asking any road users who were on the Coast Road between Baldoyle and Portmarnock between 6.30pm and 8pm on Thursday night to come forward.
They can contact Malahide Garda Station or the Garda confidential line on 1800 666 111.
