Gardai are questioning three men who were arrested during a Garda manhunt, following today's armed robbery at a Post Office in Co Meath.
Two armed men threatened a lone female staff member at Athboy post office this afternoon and made off with a sum of money in a car driven by a third man.
Two Garda helicopters were called in to help track down the men, who are being detained at Kells and Trim Garda Stations.

The gang used a silver 01 KE registered car which was located in a nearby bog.
One man was arrested a short time later while the Garda helicopter was used during searches for two more suspects, who were subsequently detained.
No-one was injured during the robbery.
