Gang Attack Man During Burglary In South Belfast
A gang of three men have attacked another man during an armed burglary in south Belfast.
The incident happened in the Diamond Gardens area at around 8.10pm on Tuesday.
The men, one armed with a small knife, took the keys of a black Audi A6, and made off in the car in the direction of Finaghy Road North.
The men are described as being in their mid to late 30's, between 5ft 10inches to 6ft in height and of medium and heavy builds. One man was wearing a light blue hooded raincoat with the hood pulled over his head, and the other two had dark coloured raincoats with their hoods pulled up. It is believed that all three men had were wearing light coloured tracksuit bottoms.
Detective Constable Sam McCallum is asking anyone who may have noticed any suspicious activity in the area or who has any information to contact them at Reactive and Organised Crime at Musgrave on the non-emergency number 101. Or, if someone would prefer to provide information without giving their details they can contact the independent charity Crimestoppers and speak to them anonymously on 0800 555 111.
