Detectives in
Inishowen are assisting police in Derry following a
cross border tiger kidnapping.
An 87-year-old woman and her son and daughter were
tied up by armed raiders who forced their way into a
house at Foyle Springs late on Monday.
It’s understood the daughter was later ordered to go
to the post office where she works in Ballymagroarty.
She was then instructed to remove cash and take it
across the border to the Bridgend area of Donegal.
Nobody was injured in the incident, but the mother
and daughter were treated for shock.
The house was cordoned off on Tuesday while police
forensic officers carried out tests.
Gardai confirmed they are assisting the PSNI with
their investigation into the incident.
There have been a number of similar robberies around
the country in recent years.
