GARDAI in Tralee are investigating two separate incidents of robbery and assault on the streets of the town in the past week.
Between 2.30pm and 3pm on Easter Saturday, a man was walking down a laneway off Ashe Street when he was approached by three males.
One of them produced a blade and demanded money from the man, which he handed over. One of the males is described as being in their late 20s, shaved head, white Adidas tracksuit bottoms and a black t-shirt.
