A 42-year-old man was arrested after midnight on Tuesday on suspicion of breaking into a storage area and stealing car spare parts.

Two others are already under arrest in connection with the same case.

On the night of June 6, after a tipoff, the police caught a 34-year-old man red handedly stealing metal spare parts from a fenced in area in Latsia, Nicosia.

The man was arrested.

Police investigations led to a second man, aged 53, who was called in for questioning and charged in writing for conspiracy to commit an offence and theft.

Further investigations led to the third arrest in Ledra street, shortly after midnight on Tuesday.

Police investigations are ongoing.
