A man is due in court today in connection with an incident in Nenagh yesterday.
Shortly before 2.30 yesterday afternoon Gardaí received a report that a man had entered the staff area and had stolen the tip jar from a restaurant in Summerhill, Nenagh.
A description of the suspect was circulated to all Gardaí on duty in the area and a man in his late teens was arrested by Detective Gardaí at 5pm.
He was brought to Nenagh Garda where he was detained under Section 4 of the Criminal Justice Act, 1984.
Gardaí later received a report from a clothes shop on Mitchell Street that a jacket had been stolen.
The injured man was brought to Cork University Hospital with non-life threatening injuries and was later discharged.
The incident was later reported to Detective Gardaí in Bishopstown and an investigation commenced, with Gardaí gathering CCTV from the area.
On 16 January, Gardaí from the Serious Crime Units at Togher, Bishopstown and Douglas Garda Stations, with the assistance of the Armed Support Unit, carried out searches at two properties in Cork city but no arrests were made.
The injured party later told Gardaí that he had installed a find my phone app, which Gardaí then utilised.
The phone was traced to a property on Brian Boru Street, where one of the stolen mobile phones and €6,300 of suspected cocaine were found by Gardaí. The suspected drugs will now be sent to Forensic Science Ireland for analysis.
