A shop assistant, Kirsty Faynes, has been highly praised by a judge for her bravery and quick thinking during an attempted robbery and a subsequent arrest, which occurred at a Edenderry off-licence last year on November 3rd. In July 2021 the assailant was sentenced to 6.5 years in prison. Kirsty had noticed a man entering the shop with a hood covering his face, and carrying a knife.
