PSNI appeal over assault and criminal damage

At approximately 12.15pm police received a report that as a man parked his van on the road he was approached by an unknown male who asked him for a lift. When the driver of the van refused the other male became racially abusive shouting and swearing. He chased the driver of the van into a property in the road. The man did not sustain any injuries.

The unknown male then went on to kick the door of the van, causing damage.

Or, if someone would prefer to provide information without giving their details, they can contact the independent charity Crimestoppers and speak to them anonymously on 0800 555 111.
