Three men in their 30's have been arrested after the front of a house was repeatedly rammed by a car in Derry/ Londonderry.

Police say it followed a disturbance at the property in the Ballynagard Crescent area on Thursday evening.

We're told damage was caused to the gates and the property itself.

Detectives are also investigating reports that a crossbow was fired at the car at some stage during the incident.

A PSNI spokesperson said:

Detectives investigating an incident in Ballynagard Crescent, Derry/Londonderry earlier this week have this morning arrested three men.

Detective Inspector Bob Blemmings said:

“A disturbance is believed to have taken place at a property in the area at around 7.30pm on Thursday night, 27 September. This reportedly culminated in a vehicle being driven repeatedly at the front of the house, causing some damage to the gates and the building itself.

Our enquiries to date would also suggest that at some point during the fracas, a crossbow may have been fired at the car.

The arrested males, aged 33, 34 and 39 have been detained on suspicion of a range of offences and remain in custody this morning assisting us with our enquiries.”
