A member of the public and two police officers were taken to hospital following the two-vehicle road traffic collision on the Fathom Line close to Quayside Close in Newry yesterday evening 13 April. Their injuries are not believed to be life threatening.
Speaking on the incident Inspector Porter said: “Shortly before 7.30pm on Saturday evening, a police vehicle which was responding to a separate incident collided with another vehicle in the Fathom Road area.
“Colleagues from the Northern Ireland Fire and Rescue Service and Northern Ireland Ambulance Service attended and initial first aid was provided at the scene."
“I wish both our police officers and member of the public a speedy and full recovery from their injuries.
“Our investigation is now underway to establish exactly what happened. We would appeal to anyone who witnessed the collision or who may have dash-cam footage to contact police on 101, quoting reference number 1581 13/04/24.”
