Staff at a shop in Carrickfergus have been left shaken after being held at gunpoint in an armed robbery.
It happened in the Oakland Park area at around twenty past six last night.
A man, thought to be in his 30s or 40s, entered with a weapon and demanded employees fill two carrier bags with money and tobacco.
He left with a sum of cash and a quantity of tobacco, seen running towards Cormorant Park.
He's described as around 5 foot 10 or 11 in height, of slim build and wearing a black jacket with blue latex gloves.
