The incident happened today at 10.35am.

GARDAÍ IN DUNDRUM have appealed for witnesses to come forward after a cash-in-transit robbery this morning.

Officers said that an employee transporting a cash box was approached and allegedly threatened by a man armed with a gun. The incident happened on the Taney Road at around 10.35am.
