Security guard threatened in armed robbery
Detectives are appealing for information following an armed robbery outside a bank in Crumlin, Co Antrim on Monday.

The robber is described as being around 5’6” tall, well built with a light blue top and baseball cap.
Elsewhere on Monday, a woman was dragged from her 4x4 vehicle by hijackers in Co Down.
