Toys reported stolen from a Newry store are among those recovered when a car was stopped on the M1, police have said

Police have charged four people after they recovered toys and children's clothes believed to be linked to a string of toy-store thefts.

Officers stopped a vehicle on the M1 motorway at about 17:30 BST on Sunday.

They discovered more than 100 items, some of which were reported stolen from a shop in Newry.

Three men aged 20, 22 and 31, and a 25-year-old woman will appear before Omagh Magistrates Court on Tuesday.

Police believe the toys and clothing are from branches of a high-street shop in Cookstown, Omagh, Sprucefield, Newry and Armagh.
