The van driver was assaulted a number of times by at least two men and a number of items were taken from the van.

Gardai are especially interested in a black salon car which was seen travelling south-bound in front of the courier van.

A white Ford Transit van also believed to have used in the robbery was later found abandoned at Gravemeadows, Stamullen.
