As part of an ongoing investigation into organised criminal activity and burglaries in Mayo, Roscommon, Longford, Westmeath and Sligo, Gardaí arrested three males in the Dublin Metropolitan Region today (Tuesday, November 5, 2024). 

 
The operation involved the search of four properties in the Dublin Metropolitan Region (DMR) where North Western Region personnel were assisted by members from the Armed Support Unit, DMR West and DMR South along with DMR Regional support and members from Athlone.
 
It was part of an investigation into 29 burglaries in counties Mayo, Roscommon, Longford, Westmeath and Sligo.

During the course of the searches, property was seized which is believed to be the proceeds of organised criminal activity, which included:

• A Rolex watch
• Designer handbags and shoes
• Substantial amounts of cash
 
Other property recovered included mobile phones, multiple car keys and log books of vehicles.

Three males (aged 26, 21 and a juvenile) were arrested and taken to Garda stations in the Mayo/Roscommon/Longford Division, where they are being detained under Section 50 of the Criminal Justice Act, 2007.
