Two armed men held up staff at a post office in Edgeworthstown, Co Longford, yesterday afternoon and made off with an undisclosed sum of money.
The raid happened at 2.30pm when two men, one armed with a firearm and the other with a sledge hammer, entered the premises. There was one female member of staff and two female customers in the post office at the time. Nobody was injured. The men made their getaway in a large saloon type silver car.
