Police in Armagh are appealing for information following two disturbing incidents which happened in Armagh earlier this month.
Around 2.45am on Sunday, 1 May, the occupant of a house in Drumman Heights was confronted by a male on the stairs of his house.
The male had a knife in his possession and made off from the house before getting into a dark, saloon type car and driving off.
He is described as being in his 20s, approximately 5ft 10in tall with stubble on his face, cropped, dark hair and was wearing a grey tracksuit and trainers.
A second male was seen outside the house and he made off on foot.
A short time later, around 3.20am, three males attempted to steal a red Nissan Micra car from Linsey’s Heights. The three made off in a navy coloured Rover 45 Spirit car.
The car was found burnt out in Belfast during the early hours of Monday, 2 May.
Police believe these incidents may be connected and are appealing to anyone who has information which may assist their investigation to contact them on 101, quoting ref: 227 010516.
If you prefer to provide information without giving your details you can contact the independent Crimestoppers charity anonymously on 0800 555 111.
