Three robbers to be sentenced for botched raid of jewellers

Three robbers whose armed raid of a high-end jewellery store was foiled by the brave actions of the owner and passers-by will be sentenced early next year at Dublin Circuit Criminal Court.

Clive Kavanagh (aged 42) was supposed to hold open the security door of the store for his two accomplices but he let it close behind him leaving the pair to wait until another customer was coming in.
