GARDAÍ have arrested and charged a woman in her 30s in relation to a robbery incident at a pharmacy on College Road, Cork city on Thursday.
At approximately 11.30am, Gardaí received a report of an attempted robbery on College Road. A woman had entered a pharmacy and handed over a note that threatened staff and demanded a list of items.
