Two men have appeared in court charged with stealing £15,000-worth of power tools in Golders Green.

Aaron Vaughan, 25, of Spottons Grove, Tottenham, appeared at Highbury Corner Magistrates’ Court on Friday charged with nine counts of burglary, two counts of theft from a vehicle and one count of theft.

He appeared alongside Luke Monk, 26, of De Quincey Road, Tottenham, who is charged with five burglaries and one theft from a vehicle.

Both men are accused of taking £15,000-worth of power tools in one burglary in Finchley Road, Golders Green, between May 21 and 24.
