Four men arrested after stolen property recovered by police in Mayobridge

Local police have said a four day search for stolen property has led to the arrest of four men.

On Friday 5 October police commenced a search of premises in the Mayobridge area for suspected stolen property. 

This search ended on Monday 8 October and four men, aged 59, 51, 40 and 37, were arrested at the scene of the search on suspicion of handling property believed to have been stolen in the Republic of Ireland. 

They have been interviewed and subsequently released on police bail pending further enquiries.

Detective Sergeant Bell said, “This protracted four day search operation has resulted in a significant amount of suspected stolen property being recovered.

“I would appeal to anyone with any information about stolen vehicles or stolen vehicle parts to contact Detectives in Newry on the non-emergency number 101, quoting reference number 661 of 05/10/18. 

“Alternatively, information can also be provided to the independent charity Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111 which is 100% anonymous and gives people the power to speak up and stop crime,” he added.
