A woman was followed home and robbed in one of two serious incidents being investigated by Gardaí in Carlow.

They are trying to track down the occupants of a dark-coloured saloon car who snatched a handbag from a woman in the Lidl carpark at around 7 o’clock last evening (Tuesday, 23rd November).

A short time before that happened another woman was followed home to Nurney from the Tesco supermarket carpark in the town and subsequently assaulted and robbed.
