A woman has been hospitalised following a roadside robbery in Co Wexford.
She was driving to work when she was stopped by what was described as a dark coloured, older type Ford Mondeo, which had a blue flashing light attached, giving the impression it was a garda car.
It happened at Corramacorra Junction, Murrintown, off the R733 at around 6.25 this morning.
A man impersonating a garda threatened the woman, assaulted her and took a sum of money.
