In Co Cavan, gardai are looking for two raiders, who may be armed, following two robberies in the county in less than a week. Last Tuesday two men with Dublin accents robbed the Kilmore Hotel in Cavan town.
Gardai believe the same men were responsible for a raid on the Lavey Inn near Stradone on Sunday morning, when they tied up the owner and his wife before ransacking the pub. In both cases the two escaped with undisclosed sums of money, and in the Lavey Inn raid they also made off with a large quantity of cigarettes.
