Police Officers Injured After Hit-And-Run Incident In Crossmaglen
The PSNI have issued an appeal for information after two officers sustained injuries when a vehicle they attempted to stop collided with their patrol car in the early hours of Sunday 01 October on the Concession Road, Crossmaglen.
At around 12.20am local neighbourhood officers attempted to stop a car, a grey coloured Audi A6. The vehicle failed to stop and collided with the police vehicle, damaging the front and injuring the two officers onboard.
Police have said that they believe that the vehicle crossed over the border.
Inspector McCormick said: "This type of reckless and cowardly behaviour places members of the public and our officers at risk of serious harm and we are lucky not to be dealing with more serious injuries.
"I am appealing to anyone who may have seen the grey Audi A6 in the area, or who may have any information as to the driver or dash-cam footage that could assist with enquiries, to contact police via 101 quoting reference number 32 01/10/23."
A report can also be made using the online reporting form via www.psni.police.uk/makeareport. Alternatively, information can be provided to Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111 or online at www.crimestoppers-uk.org.
