PSNI Hunt Armed Gang After Aughnacloy Filling Station Robbery
Detectives are appealing for witnesses and dash-cam footage after an armed robbery at a filling station on the Caledon Road in Aughnacloy on Wednesday, 8 October 2025.
The incident was reported to police at approximately 6.40am. A group of masked men, wearing boiler suits and armed with suspected firearms, threatened security staff who were attending an ATM at the premises.
The gang ordered the staff into the ATM bunker before removing cash boxes from the security van and the cash machine. They made off with a significant sum of cash.
The suspects fled the scene in the direction of Armagh in a dark-coloured Audi Q7.
Detective Inspector McCamley stated that the robbery was a "shocking experience for the staff involved" and urged the public to provide any information they have. The PSNI are working with An Garda Síochána as part of their enquiries, given the proximity of the border.
Detectives are asking anyone who may have noticed suspicious behaviour in or around the filling station in recent days, or who was travelling in the area at the time of the robbery, to contact them.
Of particular interest is any dash-cam footage covering the area or any relevant recordings from doorbell cameras in the general locality.
Anyone with information is asked to call police on 101, quoting reference number 191 08/10/25. Any information can also be provided using the online non-emergency reporting form via www.psni.police.uk/makeareport
You can also contact Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111 or online at www.crimestoppers-uk.org
