“The man suffered minor injuries,” he said.
“The vehicle was found in Service St in April and was impounded.”
DSC Hare said a 23-year-old man and 19-year-old woman have been charged with theft from bank accounts relating to the armed robbery.
A 20-year-old man was also charged with other matters, including drug possession.
