Shop robbed twice in 12 hours

A sports shop in County Down has been robbed twice in less than 12 hours.

The Sports Factory on the Carnbane industrial estate in Newry was first burgled on Sunday night.

When staff arrived to open up on Monday, they were held up at gunpoint before money was stolen from the safe.

Operations manager Terry O'Neill said that the staff were very upset by the robberies.

Mr O'Neill said: "Both the managers and the members of staff are very, very shocked."
