“Open the till or I’m going to stick this in your neck,” was the threat allegedly made during the robbery of a shop in Cork City earlier this month and on Monday the accused man agreed to a four-week remand in custody.

Darren Rice consented to the application to remand him in custody until October 19. Sergeant Gearóid Davis said formal directions would be sought from the Director of Public Prosecutions on the robbery charge.
