An investigation is under way after a woman was robbed after she stopped her car on the hard shoulder on the N7 in Co Kildare yesterday.
The woman pulled into the hard shoulder between J7 and J7 southbound near Kill at around 2pm and a second car parked in front of her.
Gardaí said a male got out of the second car, and following an altercation, stole a number of personal items from the woman's car before leaving the scene.
The woman did not report any serious injuries.
No arrests have been made and gardaí are appealing for witnesses.
In particular, anyone travelling on the N7 yesterday afternoon between 1.45pm and 2.15pm, particularly between Junction 7 (Kill) and Junction 8 (Johnstown), and who may have camera footage (including dash cam) is asked to make this available to gardaí.
Anyone with information in relation to this incident should contact Naas Garda Station on 045 884300, the Garda Confidential Line on 1800 666 111, or any garda station.
