Gardaí in Dublin have seized a quantity of illegal arms and ammunition as part of an investigation into robberies of cash in transit vans and ATM machines.
The haul, which included a machine gun, a sawn-off shotgun, a 9mm pistol and over 100 rounds of ammunition hidden, followed a raid on a house in Clonee this morning.
Gardaí arrested two men, both in their 20s, in connection with the seizure.
Both are being held at Blanchardstown Garda Station under Section 30 of the Offences Against the State Act
