'Men with knives' burgle city centre apartment
Two men armed with knives have burgled an apartment in the Donegall Quay area of Belfast.
At around 1am on Tuesday, the men reportedly entered the apartment block and a residence inside and threatened three men living there, before taking a sum of cash.
There were also reports that the men had tried to enter other apartments and also a business, before making off.
