Gardai have arrested and charged a man following investigations into an alleged Dublin shop robbery last month.
The robbery allegedly happened at around 9pm on April 8 at a shop on Bird Avenue in Clonskeagh. Gardai said that during the course of the incident, "a number of people entered a shop armed with hammers and threatened staff before leaving the scene on foot with a sum of cash".
A garda spokesman said: "Following an extensive investigation by Gardaí attached to Dundrum Station, a man in his 30s was arrested on the morning of Thursday 4th May, 2023 and detained at a Dublin Garda Station under the provisions of Section 4 of the Criminal Justice Act, 1984.
"This man has since been charged and is expected to appear before Dun Laoghaire District Court at 10:30am on Friday 5th May, 2023. Investigations are ongoing."
