Gardaí issue public appeal after armed robbery in Tipp

The incident happened when the men entered Slattery's Garage on the Main Street around 7.30pm yesterday evening armed with a shotgun, threatened staff and demanded money.  

Nobody was injured in the incident and no money was taken, however staff were left very shaken and the suspects fled the scene in a car. 

Gardai are appealing for anyone who may have seen anything or noticed any suspicious behaviour to contact them. 

Detective sergeant Seamus Maher is from Clonmel Garda Station.
