Gardaí are investigating two separate cash-in-transit robberies in Dublin.

A security officer was threatened by a man outside a bank in Tallaght village shortly before midday - before the raider made off with a cash box.

Gardai are appealing for information about a silver Peugeot car. 

While in Finglas, a man confronted a security officer and also escaped with an unknown quantity of cash.

No one was injured and no arrests have been made.
