Gardaí found car being cut up for parts

When gardaí raided a garage in Co Limerick they found a stolen Audi A6 being “cannibalised” for spare parts.

Limerick Circuit Court was told the car, a 07 reg, was worth €67,000 when it was bought new. When it was stolen in December 2013, it was valued at €17,000.

Polish national Tomasz Latek, a qualified mechanic, pleaded guilty to handling the stolen vehicle.
