A 29-year-old man has been arrested after running at PSNI officers armed with a hammer during an incident in Belfast.
Police received a report at around 12.25am on Monday that a number of men were trying to gain entry to a property in Easton Crescent in the north of the city.
When officers attended the scene they were alerted by members of the public about a man armed with a hammer in the nearby Orient Gardens area. Upon being approached by officers the man ran at them with a hammer, before being restrained and arrested.
Police were also made aware that a vehicle in Orient Gardens and another in Brookvale Street had their windows smashed. Police subsequently recovered a suspected firearm from the area.
