Police are investigating following the armed robbery of a bottle shop in Kirwan this afternoon.
Around 5.30pm a man entered the bottle shop on Kern Brothers Drive before proceeding up to the counter and producing a note demanding cash from the attendant. The man then produced a knife and placed it on the counter.
The male shop attendant compiled with the demands and the man fled the store with a sum of cash.
No one was physically injured in the robbery.
Investigations are continuing.
