Two men, one armed with an imitation gun, fled a robbery on a security guard outside a Dublin post office on an electric scooter and a bicycle.
The incident occurred outside the post office on St Agnes Road in Crumlin shortly before 1pm on Thursday. Two males, one armed with an imitation firearm, threatened a male security employee and demanded the contents of the cash box he was transporting.
The pair fled with the cash box in the direction of Windmill Road.
Nobody was hurt during the incident, and the imitation gun has been recovered by the Garda.
