A worker was held at gunpoint during an armed robbery on a cash in transit van in Dublin earlier today. The cash in transit worker was held at gunpoint outside the post office on the Old County Road. He was threatened before the cash box, which contained up to €50,000, was taken. The cash box and suspected firearm have not yet been recovered and gardaí are canvassing the area for CCTV. A cash-in-transit employee had entered the premises with a cash box before being approached by a man holding a firearm.
