TERRIFIED hotel guests were locked in a fridge during an early morning armed raid.

Gardaí were last night searching for the armed gang who carried out the robbery at the Arklow Bay Hotel in Co Wicklow.

Five raiders armed with hatchets, hurleys and iron bars entered the premises just after 4.30am and confronted the night porter at the 92-bedroom hotel.
