Police were responding to a report of a domestic incident in Donaghadee shortly after 11pm when they observed a car, believed to have been involved, travelling on the Movilla Road into Newtownards.

The car failed to stop for police when signalled to do so and struck the police vehicle a number of times as it made off. Two officers who were in the police car at the time sustained non-life threatening injuries as a result.
