THREE people are due in court today after they were arrested on suspicion of involvement with a spate of crimes.

Police say a stolen car rammed into the front window of a clothes shop on the Lisburn Road in south Belfast early on Saturday and stock was taken.

The car had been stolen a few hours earlier during a burglary in Holywood, Co Down.

The three people were arrested after a serious collision on Cliftonville Drive in north Belfast.

The accused, described by police as an adult and two juveniles, are to appear at Belfast Magistrates’ Court today charged with a number of offences including burglary and aggravated vehicle-taking.
