GARDAÍ HAVE ARRESTED one man following a robbery yesterday evening at the Supervalu store in Killester, Co Dublin.
Two men armed with a handgun and a hammer entered the shop at around 6.20pm yesterday.
They threatened staff and stole a substantial amount of cash from the shop before being driven away from the scene in a red Citroen Saxo by a third man.
The car was later found abandoned a short distance away, on Gracefield Road.
