Three men remain  in custody after stolen property recovered in Laois

Three men remain in custody today after stolen property was recovered in Co Laois.

Gardaí made the arrests last night during an intelligence-led search at a house in rural Co Laois near the Tipperary border and are in connection with an ongoing investigation into a robbery in Athlone last week.

They recovered a large amount of stolen property and picked up three men. Two are aged 27, while the third man is a 31-year-old.

The three are being questioned at Portlaoise, Tullamore and Athlone garda stations where they can be detained for up to seven days.
