THREE MEN ARE due in court tomorrow in connection with multiple burglaries at golf clubs.

Gardaí arrested the three men on Thursday while searching a premises in Ashbourne, Co Meath under Operation Thor, an annual operation targeting burglaries and associated criminal activity in the winter months.

Two of the men are aged in their 20s and one is in his late teens.
