A woman walking home at around 1.30am was attacked by two men, pushed to the ground, and had her handbag stolen.

Gardaí in Monasterevin are appealing for witnesses following a robbery in the town over the weekend.

It happened in the early hours of Sunday morning, the 5th of October, at Drogheda Court – a short distance from Finlays pub.
