The outlet in Courtown was raided at about twenty past four yesterday afternoon by two men believed to be carrying a firearm. 

Following a struggle with a female member of staff they removed a cash drawer and stole a small quantity of money. 

Gardaí arrested one man a short distance from the scene and a firearm was recovered – a second man was arrested a short time later. 

The men are currently detained under Section 30 of The Offences Against the State Act.
