Emergency services descended on Liquor Baron on Ferguson Road at about 6:20pm following reports of a firearm being discharged.
In a statement to Newshub, a police spokesperson said staff arrived to discover there had been a robbery at the liquor store.
Police say they are investigating the robbery and working to establish whether a firearm was involved.
