Daring Post Office robbery in Lisburn
IN July 1977 Lisburn detectives were continuing investigations into one of the most daring armed robberies in the time for some time.
It happened at Lisburn Post Office in Linenhall Street. Three masked and armed men had held up staff at the sorting office beside the general post office and got away with an estimated £12,000. Public appeals were issued to try and catch those responsible for the raid.
