Gardaí have arrested two men after a robbery at a pharmacy in Dublin 4 on Saturday.

The pair fled from the scene on foot after taking a sum of cash, a phone and medication from the store.

In a follow up operation, gardaí carried out a search and arrest operation in the Clonskeagh area and arrested two men aged in their 40s. Quantities of medication were also recovered.

Both are currently detained at Irishtown Garda Station.
