A man in his 20s has been arrested in connection with a robbery at a bank in Rosslare Harbour in Co Wexford this morning.

Gardai responded after the alarm was activated just before 10am.

They couldn't gain entry to the building but managed to help a number of staff members in a room at the back of the building to leave.

An armed man remained inside and a shot was fired.
