Three men have been arrested following a robbery in Tyrellstown, Co Dublin this morning.

At least two men, armed with a sawn-off shotgun, held up a cash-in-transit van delivering money to an ATM machine at around 11.30am.

They got away with a cashbox, believed to have contained up €100,000.

However, a short time later, the three men in their 20s were arrested in a car at the back of Cappagh Hospital in Finglas.

A motorcycle was also recovered nearby.

The three are being detained at Blanchardstown and Finglas Garda Stations.
