A MAN has been arrested and suspected cannabis with an approximate value of €6,500, along with a sum of cash, have been seized following searches in Limerick city this Monday.
The searches - which were conducted at a number of residences in the city - formed part of an operation targeting an Organised Crime Group (OCG) suspected of being involved in commercial and domestic burglaries and the theft of high value vehicles. The value of property stolen from victims by this OCG over the past 12 months is believed to be substantial.
“A man, aged in his 30s, was arrested in connection with this investigation and is currently detained under Section 50 of the Criminal Justice Act 2007 at a garda station in Co. Clare,” said a garda spokesperson.
