Man to face court over murder in Derry

A 39 year old man has been charged with attempted murder following an incident at a house in Derry last week.

A 33 year old man has been charged with criminal damage, dangerous driving and attempted grievous bodily harm with intent.

Both are due to appear at Derry Magistrates’ Court today, Monday, October 1.

As is normal procedure, all charges will be reviewed by the PPS.

A 34 year old man has been released on bail, pending further enquiries.

Detectives said the arrests were made following a disturbance at a property in Ballynagard Crescent in area at around 7.30pm on Thursday night, 27 September.

DI Bob Blemmmings said: “This reportedly culminated in a vehicle being driven repeatedly at the front of the house, causing some damage to the gates and the building itself.

“Our enquiries to date would also suggest that at some point during the fracas, a crossbow may have been fired at the car.”
