Appeal For Information On Police Officer Assault
Police have renewed an appeal for information following an incident in Clogher in which two men, one of them a police officer, were assaulted.
Issuing the appeal Sergeant Gracey said: "Shortly before 12.55am (on) Thursday 30 June, officers received and responded to a report of an assault at premises at Corick Road, Clogher.

"During the course of the arrest of the suspect, one police officer was assaulted, sustaining facial injuries.

A man, aged in his 30s, has been arrested on suspicion of assault occasioning actual bodily harm, assault on police, and grievous bodily harm.
