Three men are being questioned tonight after a security guard was robbed at knifepoint in Co Down.
Police said a man wearing a fluorescent jacket threatened the guard as he was making a cash delivery to a grocery store on Hill Street, Newry.
The suspect grabbed the cash box and made off in a silver Peugeot, driven by a second man, shortly before 10am.
The car was later found abandoned on the Craigmore Road and the stolen cash box was also recovered.
