Officers from the North Wales Police and Cheshire Police Armed Response Unit responded to the robbery at a takeaway in Flint last night, where two males entered with a firearm and demanded money.

A spokesman for the unit confirmed both males were located at a local address and were arrested, with an imitation firearm also being recovered.
