Gardai is questioning a man tonight in connection with the alleged armed robbery of a store in Co Donegal this morning in which staff were threatened with what appeared to be a weapon.
The man, in his 20s, was arrested after a stolen car was intercepted by Gardai in Donegal City shortly after the incident and the driver was taken into custody.
Gardai says a man walked into a store in Glencar, Co Donegal at approximately 9:40 am today and threatened staff with what appeared to be a weapon before taking a number of cigarettes and cash.
He then fled the scene on foot.
However, gardai arrested a man following reports of a vehicle theft in Donegal City shortly thereafter.
Gardai recovered an alleged pistol and a sum of cash and cigarettes. The weapon is being examined by the Garda Ballistics Unit and the car was seized for a technical examination.
The man is currently being held for questioning at Letterkenny Garda station.
