Two men, aged 57 and 62, and one woman, aged 50, were arrested on suspicion of attempting to handle stolen goods and money laundering.
The 62-year-old man was bailed to return to March Police Station on September 22, whereas the woman and the 57-year-old man were bailed to return to March on August 25.
