A man who defecated twice outside a Finglas shop in the dead of the night has been caught by the owner as he was about to repeat the act a third time.

The man appeared outside the Clever Buys shop on Clune Road on September 15 and 21 and was caught on CCTV pulling down his trousers and going to the toilet on the pavement before getting back into his car and driving away.

But in the early hours of Wednesday morning shop owner Alan Buckley got a call from a delivery driver to tell him the suspect had returned.
