Man tries to make off with cash from Limerick pub in middle of day

A MAN tried to make off with cash from a pub in Limerick city centre last Saturday. 

On February 25 at 3:30pm, a supervisor of a pub in the city centre went downstairs and into the kitchen of the premises.

Here she saw a male run out of the office with cash. She shouted at him and pulled at him, which made him drop the cash and run from the premises empty handed.

Sergeant Ber Leetch said the woman was "shocked" but that the male should not have gotten access to this area "so easily". 

"There must be access control to any area that has cash, at the very least a locked office door that CCTV should cover.

"Any cash must be stored securely in a safe that is securely bolted to a solid floor or wall".
