Cars have crushed doors and bumpers hanging off
Images released by the PSNI show the damage done to three police vehicles in an alleged ramming incident.The pictures were released just hours after the incident in which the police say three patrol cars were ‘rammed’ by a tractor. They say the cars were ‘substantially damaged’ in the incident which happened in the early hours of Saturday morning.
It is unclear how much it will cost to repair the vehicles or if they will be declared write-offs. The police say the drama unfolded as officers investigating a report of a drink driver in Fivemiletown and “attended an address in the Tattenabuddagh Lane area just after midnight as part of their enquiries”.
The statement added: “While at the address, a man in his 20s tried to evade police in a tractor. He rammed three police vehicles causing extensive damage to all three vehicles. Attending officers narrowly avoided injury in the incident. The driver aged 25 was later arrested on suspicion of attempted murder and remains in custody at this time.” For all the latest news, visit the Belfast Live homepage here.
