Both Michael and Thomas Galbraith had been wanted by police who are investigating an incident in Nuneaton, Warwickshire on May 9. Two other men, James Galbraith and Anthony Galbraith, are to appear before at the same court on the same day. Michael and Thomas Galbraith News in 90 June 4th James Galbraith (28) from Limerick has already been charged with attempted murder in connection to the same incident, although Warwickshire Police has not released any details. Anthony Galbraith (20) of Woodside Park was also charged with attempted murder and remanded in custody. Investigating police had earlier released mug shots of Michael Galbraith and 23-year-old Thomas Galbraith after it was believed they had fled the area. Police had urged anyone who had seen them to 'call 999 straight away'. "Both have links with Warwickshire, West Midlands, Kent, Bedfordshire and the south of the Republic of Ireland," a Warwickshire Police spokesperson said previously. On May 22, more than 100 officers from across the country took part in a major raid on a halting site in Woodside Park, near Ryton on Dunsmore, in a 'significant pre-planned operation'. As well as James Galbraith, police also arrested a 30-year-old man and a 17-year-old boy on suspicion of theft as part of an investigation into shop thefts totalling around £25,000 of stolen goods. A 39-year-old man was also taken into custody on suspicion of theft after suspected stolen goods were found in a caravan. In addition, a 44-year-old man was arrested for failing to appear in court for drug driving offences and a 52-year-old man for failing to appear in court for a case of grievous bodily harm. The seventh arrest was that of a 34-year-old man on suspicion of immigration offences. Several vehicles suspected to have been stolen, used in crime or having false documents have also been seized. Police say that four people, who they believe to be victims of criminal exploitation, have been 'safeguarded' and are being supported by specialist officers. Chief Superintendent Jon Belcher told Coventry Live: "This was a coordinated, multi-agency operation using specialist national resources. "This came about because of ongoing concerns raised by our communities, and we want to send a clear message: We will not tolerate criminality. We will work with our partners to use every power and tactic available to pursue and disrupt offenders. "We will work to protect and support law-abiding residents, both on the site and elsewhere, as we continue to pursue those who are involved in criminal behaviour.' "We again apologise for the impact this had on our patients and visitors.

Shoplifting pals handed themselves in after being featured on ‘Crimecall' stealing €1.6k groceries

Caroline Collins (27) and Nellie Collins (29) filled a shopping trolley with goods and walked out of a Tesco without paying, a court heard Two friends who stole €1,600 worth of groceries from a supermarket handed themselves in to gardaí when they saw the theft featured on RTÉ's Crimecall. Caroline Collins (27) and Nellie Collins (29) filled a shopping trolley with goods and walked out of a Tesco without paying, a court heard. Judge Aine Clancy said she would spare them criminal convictions if they paid compensation to the shop. The accused, both with addresses at Cara Park, Coolock, Dublin, pleaded guilty at Blanchardstown District Court to theft. Garda Sergeant Maria Callaghan said the accused entered a Tesco in Adamstown, Lucan, on January 3, 2024, put €1,600 worth of assorted groceries into a trolley and then passed all points of payment. The incident was captured on camera and subsequently featured on RTÉ's Crimecall programme, Sgt Callaghan said. Nellie Collins, charged with theft. The pair handed themselves in to Coolock garda station, where they were arrested and charged but the property was not recovered. Caroline Collins, who was from a Traveller background, was having difficulties at the time and was 'racking up debts', her solicitor Simon Fleming said. She had since got a job and was now working as a ­healthcare assistant after getting a diploma, the court heard. 'She came forward when she saw the photos' on Crimecall, Mr Fleming said. Caroline Collins would lose her employment if a conviction was recorded against her, he said, asking the judge for leniency. The court heard the circumstances were similar for the co-accused, Nellie Collins. Judge Clancy asked if the accused were related to each other and Mr Fleming said the two women were friends. The judge said it was a 'very serious theft' and said the quantity of groceries taken was 'a lot' but she would strike the case out, leaving both accused without criminal records if they made 'full restitution' of the €1,600 between them. However, she said she would convict them and fine them €800 each in default. The accused were remanded on continuing bail to appear in court again on a date in November. The court heard free legal aid had been granted. Caroline Collins, charged with theft. News in 90 June 4th
