Arrests made after off duty officer becomes suspicious

THREE men were arrested after a vigilant off-duty policeman noted a group acting suspiciously in a vehicle last Thursday morning.

The off duty officer thought they were giving undue attention to a cash delivery in the Sprucefield Park complex.

He decided to make a phone call for assistance.

Police quickly responded to the officer's report which resulted in three men and a vehicle being stopped and searched.

They made three arrests for several offences including the taking of a motor vehicle, drugs possession, handling stolen goods, fraud and possession of an imitation firearm with intent.
