Gardaí recover vehicle used in €2.5m security van heist
Gardaí said that they had recovered the van in a public place at Dromad, after receiving information from a member of the public. Superintendent Noel McLoughlin, of Coolock Garda Station said gardaí were keeping an open mind on whether or not there was criminal or paramilitary involvement in the robbery. He said no money had been found in the van and it was not burnt out. “It has been transported here to our investigation headquarters (in Fentry) and is being technically examined.”
He said there had been a substantial amount of money in the Brinks Allied security van - but less than €2.5m and around Stg£60,000-£70,000.
