He demanded cash and then fired a number of shots – injuring two people working there.

They’re both in hospital with non-life threatening injuries.

Gardai arrested two men in a follow-up operation.

A 44-year-old man remains in custody at Coolock Garda Station.

While a 16-year-old boy has been released without charge and a file’s being prepared for the DPP.
