The owner of a Mitchelstown filling station has expressed his relief this week that no one was hurt during a daring raid which took place in the early hours of Tuesday morning.
Christopher Myers, owner of the Maxol filling station on the Dublin Road, said he was ‘devastated’ by the burglary but was relieved that no member of staff was hurt during the break-in.
