THIS tweet is why you need to follow the Gardaí Twitter page

OK, we'll be honest, the official Twitter page of an Garda Síochána isn't always the most riveting of accounts, but every so often they'll post something which will remind you that the boys in blue are only MAD for the craic sometimes.

Taking to social media this afternoon, the boyos shared a snap of a box of discarded breakfast cereal which was recently discovered in the vicinity of the Phoenix Park.

Laying the lols on us old-school, they posted a message which reminds us of a joke our old Geography teacher might make, writing: "Crime scene discovered near Phoenix Park. Information sought, we may be looking for a cereal offender."
