Many people were shocked by last week's incident which saw criminals take advantage of Storm Emma by looting a Lidl store in west Dublin.
At least thirty people were involved, and nine are now facing charges.
Nicola Tallant, investigations editor of the Sunday World, told us more about the incident.
There was also criminal activity elsewhere in the country during the storm. We were joined by Miriam Murray, mother of ten-year-old Ethan, whose special needs school in Navan was broken into by thieves who stole important electronic learning and communication equipment.
