A stolen dumper truck has been used to rampage through a number of streets in Derry.
It was taken from Skeoge Industrial estate around 8.30 last night and was later used to damage lamposts and street furniture.
Police say two young men were seen driving it through housing estates, including Ederowen Park, Glendale Park and Rossnagalliagh.
