    €170,000 stolen from security company Brinks



    The wife of the director of Brinks security was abducted by a gang overnight as they forced her husband to hand over €170,000 in cash.

    Gardaí believe that an experienced criminal gang was behind the abduction of the wife of a senior security company executive, and the robbery of €170,000.

    However they say they are satisfied that all relevant security protocols were followed.

    A group of armed and masked men forced their way into the couple's home in Monasterboice in Co Louth at 9pm last night and held them overnight.

    The woman was taken away in a silver Mercedes (reg: 02 D 43757) at around 6am and the man was forced to go to the Brinks depot in Clonshaugh and hand over the cash.

    One of the kidnappers went with him and he was ordered to drop him off at Balbriggan Cemetery.

    The Brinks director left Clonshaugh at 8.30am with around €170,000 and drove his own silver Toyota Landcruiser (reg: 01 KE 843)

    He left it with the money at Thatch Road in Whitehall. The car was later found burned out in Ashbourne.

    In the meantime, fire brigade personnel, responding to reports of a car on fire, found the man's wife tied up at the back of a derelict house on the Howth Road. The woman's own car had been set on fire at the front of that house.

    Gardaí are seeking any information on the movement of the Mercedes and the Jeep, or anyone who saw any suspicious activity around the couple's home in Monasterboice last night.
