A man in his 40s arrested following a report of an assault at a house at the Oaks Avenue area of Dungannon on Sunday has been released on police bail.
Earlier, Detective Sergeant Robinson said a report was received at around 7.30pm that the male occupant of a property in the Oaks Avenue area of the town sustained injury to his forehead, after a man armed with a knife entered the house and assaulted him.
“He was subsequently taken to hospital for treatment for his injuries, which are not believed to be life-threatening at this time,” said the DS.
“The suspect, who is aged in his 40s, was subsequently arrested on suspicion of aggravated burglary with intent to commit grievous bodily harm, possession of an offensive weapon with intent to commit an indictable offence, and wounding with intent to do grievous bodily harm.”
The man detailed has since been released on police bail pending further enquiries.
