Gardaí arrest man in relation to robbery by people armed with hammers

Gardaí have arrested a man in relation to an alleged robbery by a group of people armed with hammers. 

The incident occurred on Saturday April 8 shortly after 9pm at a premises on Bird Avenue, Clonskeagh in the Dundrum District, whereby the group entered a shop armed and threatened staff before leaving on foot with a sum of cash. 

Following an extensive investigation by Gardaí, a man in his 30s was arrested yesterday (Thursday May 4) 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 today (Friday May 5, 2023). 

Investigations are ongoing.
