Appeal Issued Over Cash-In-Transit Robbery

Gardaí have appealed for information on a cash-in-transit robbery in Santry on Thursday afternoon.

Two masked men threatened the van's security staff outside a post office and shop on Shantalla Road, at about 15:15.

The men fled the scene on foot. They were carrying a cash-box.

The cash-box was found a short time later, and all the money taken in the robbery was recovered.

Any witnesses to the robbery or anyone with information is asked to contact Santry Garda on 01 6664000, or the Garda Confidential Line on 1800 666 111.
