Three men have been arrested following burglaries across the country including the north-west.
The arrests follow searches earlier this morning.
Those arrested are all suspected of being members of an Organised Crime Group responsible for a number of burglaries and unauthorised Takings of vehicles nationwide across the DMR, Eastern and North Western Garda regions in recent weeks.
They were arrested at a location in Dublin City Centre.
The arrests are a result of an ongoing intelligence led operation, led by the Garda Eastern region and involving units attached to the DMR, Eastern Region and National Units.
The males, two in their 30s and one in his late teens, are currently detained at a Garda station in Dublin under the provisions of Section 50 of the Criminal Justice Act, 2007.
A vehicle has also been seized and will be subject to forensic examination.
Gardai say investigations are ongoing.
