Hendron condemns East Belfast attempted robbery

Pottinger Alliance Councillor Máire Hendron has condemned the horrifying attempted robbery that took place at a petrol station on the Beersbridge Road last night. Two men went into the premises just before 11pm last night and one was armed with a handgun.

Councillor Máire Hendron commented: “This type of incident is totally unacceptable and I am staggered at the actions of those involved.

“This incident must have been a horrific ordeal for the staff present at the time and my thoughts are with them as they try to come to terms with what happened. I would urge anybody with any information on this to contact the police immediately.”
