Gardaí have arrested and charged a man in his 30s in relation to a number of incidents of burglary, theft from a vehicle, criminal damage and possession of drugs in Cork City yesterday.

Shortly after 7am, Gardaí from Anglesea Street on high visibility patrol received a report of three burglaries that had just occurred in the English Market, Prince St.

Following preliminary investigations by Gardaí it was discovered that there were also two incidents of criminal damage and one theft from a vehicle in the vicinity a short time earlier.
