Thieves make off with haul of cash and cigarettes after breaking into Kilkenny filling station overnight

GARDAI are looking for two men who broke into a county Kilkenny filling station and made off with cash and a haul of cigarettes.

The two men gained entry by smashing the glass in the front door of the garage in Woodsgift, Urlingford, shortly before 4am on Thursday.

The thieves robbed cash and cigarettes from the forecourt shop of the filling station, before making their getaway in a silver-coloured saloon car.

Gardia in Urlingford are appealing to anyone with information, or who may have noticed a silver saloon driving around the area at that time, to contact them on 056 883 1133.
