Two arrests have been made after four police officers sustained injuries over a 12-hour period while responding to two reports in Ballycarry and Ballymena.
While attending a domestic related incident on Saturday morning (5 August) in the Ballycarry area, two officers were assaulted.
One officer sustained cuts to their face.
A 28-year-old man was arrested on suspicion of a number of offences, including assault on police. He has since been released pending report to the PPS.
Later on Saturday evening, another two officers were assaulted while responding to a report of an assault in Ballymena.
Both officers were kicked, one to the head and shoulder and a second to the arm. A 27-year-old woman was arrested on suspicion of a number of offences, including assault on police. She has since been charged to court.
Chief Inspector Adrian Bryan said: “Our officers are here to help, and respond to calls everyday assisting people. Assaults on our officers are unacceptable, and must not be tolerated as simply being ‘part of the job’.”
