Gardaí warn Cork firms to install back-up alarms

GARDAÍ have warned businesses to install back-up alarm systems after a spate of robberies in Co Cork.

The latest theft took place early yesterday at Innishannon and Boherbue, although gardaí don’t believe the same gang was involved.

Some time between 1am and 3am raiders broke into the shop at O’Sullivan’s service station in Innishannon. They cut the wires on the alarm system and after breaking into the building they lifted a heavy safe off a shelf before cutting it open with what was likely to be angle-grinders.
