Road & TT bikes found in burglar's van packed with stolen property

The loot taken from the van by the Garda was an eclectic mix; from power tools to three bikes, including two TT machines

The Garda has put on show an Aladdin's Cave of stolen goods found crammed in the back of a van, including three bikes.

Among the property, which gardai say were all taken during burglaries in the Leinster area, was an Argon 18 road bike and two TT bikes of the same make.

The bikes were in the back of a van that was crammed with stolen property, mostly comprised of power tools.

And now gardai are carrying out an investigation to try and reunite the items with their owners after the seizure in Dublin on Friday.
