Three men have robbed a south Belfast off licence.

Just before 10 o'clock on Friday night, the men - one armed with a knife - entered the Lisburn Road area premises and threatened staff.

They stole from a cigarette cabinet and money from the tills, before making off on foot.

A PSNI spokesperson said: "“No one was injured however staff have been left badly shaken by the ordeal.

“I would appeal to anyone who may have witnessed the incident or have any dash-cam or CCTV footage that could assist with our enquiries to contact detectives on 101 quoting reference 2003 of 04/11/22.
