Chemist shop robbed

Gardai are searching for two youths who robbed Burkes Pharmacy this afternoon.

The two entered the shop at around 12.30pm and threatened the staff with some sort of 'implement'. They were masked and wore scarves, and took a sum of money as well as grabbing some drugs from behind the counter.

The pair then escaped on foot, walking towards the town centre. Nobody was injured in the incident.
