Three people are due in court as part of a Garda investigation into drug-related intimidation.
A woman in her 60s, a man in his 20s and a teenage boy were arrested by Gardaí in Athlone on Tuesday.
The suspects were detained for questioning under Section 4 of the Criminal Justice Act 1984 at a Garda station in the Meath-Westmeath Division.
Following questioning, all three were charged in connection with the investigation.
They are due to appear before Longford District Court later on Tuesday.
