Garda recognises knifeman from CCTV image a week later

A SANDWICH bar’s CCTV captured a high quality image of a robber in Limerick.

But, despite the perfect “still” image, the knifeman who stole €160 from a Subway outlet was — unusually for Limerick — not known to gardaí as a robber.

It was, however, a week later when a detective, driving his car, spotted an oncoming motorist and realised it was person in the CCTV image.
