One officer was bitten while the other three officers were kicked, police said
Officers were called after receiving reports of two men acting suspiciously in the Bawnmore Place area of Strathfoyle, reportedly attempting to open doors of properties.
“Our officers displayed incredible professionalism when dealing with this situation. As they tried to help one of the men who needed medical attention, they were then assaulted by the other man. It’s reprehensible, yet despite what they faced they have continued on duty." Detectives from Strand Road Criminal Investigation Branch are investigating a report made just after 6.30am on Thursday of a burglary of a house in Deanfield in the Waterside area. Entry was gained and keys to a red Volkswagen Golf were stolen, and the car was also reported stolen.
Detective Sergeant Hanbidge said: “We want to hear from anyone who believes they saw a red Volkswagen Golf between 5am and 8am this morning between Waterside and in Strathfoyle to get in touch. You may also have captured the car on your dash cam or CCTV.
