Two men have been arrested after a robbery and hit and run in south Dublin last week.

A woman died after she was knocked down by the getaway car.

On March 10th, an armed robbery took place at a shop on Barnhill Road in Dalkey.

The raiders threatened staff and made off with the contents of the till.

Three men fled the scene and, when making their escape, they knocked down two women on Avondale Road in nearby Killiney.

54-year-old Jacqueline McGovern died. She was a Special Needs Assistant at a Dun Laoghaire school.

The other woman, who was 51, was brought to hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.

Today, Gardaí arrested two men in their 20s as part of the investigation.

They are being held at Dun Laoghaire and Dundrum Garda Stations under Section 4 of the Criminal Justice Act. They can be detained for up to 12 hours.
