A masked man armed with a knife who attempted to rob a commercial premises in Newtownhamilton, Co Armagh ran off when staff raised the alarm. At around 9pm; last Friday, February 7th the masked man, who was dressed in dark clothes, entered the premises and went to a kiosk within. He passed a note to a staff member demanding they hand over money.
Instead, the employee pressed a panic alarm and the man fled the scene empty-handed. Police in the North are now appealing for witnesses or information on the attempted burglary and ask anyone who can help their investigation to get in touch by phone, online or via Crimestoppers.
