Three men arrested over Sligo aggravated burglary

They are being held at separate Garda stations in Leitrim and Sligo. 

Three men have been arrested in connection to an aggravated burglary in a pensioners home in Sligo almost two months ago.

73-year-old Tom Niland got serious head and body injuries after masked men forced their way into his home at Skreen on January 18th.

Gardaí investigating the case previously said they'd recovered significant evidence.
