A Kilmihil couple are recovering from shock following an incident in which they were threatened at knife point in their home.
A man entered their home at Knockalough yesterday afternoon, and threatened them before stealing a jeep from outside the house.

The 31 year old from Limerick later became the subject of a high-speed garda chase on the Kilrush Road into Ennis, but was overpowered by Gardai after he crashed the stolen vehicle into buildings in the busy Lower Market Street area of the town.
No one was hurt in the incident though Ennis Superintendent John Scanlon says the suspect is now being held for questioning.
