A woman's been treated in hospital for facial injuries following an assault in Dungannon.

It happened in the area known locally as "the lines", at around 6.30pm on Wednesday.

Police say they're keen to speak to a group of around 6 young men, believed to have been in the area around that time. 

Fermanagh and South Tyrone MLA, Rosemary Barton says, “Unfortunately this area in Dungannon appears to have a history of anti-social behaviour resulting in assaults.

"Following this most recent incident, I have written to the PSNI to establish what more can be done to tackle this criminality.

"I will be asking for increased Police viligiance and patrols in this area." 

Police are appealing to anyone who may have information regarding the assault to contact them on 101 quoting reference 874 of 10/01/19.”
