POLICE are appealing for information after a car was stolen in Trillick and then set on fire.

Sometime between 11pm on May 21 and 7am on May 22, a silver Toyota Avensis was stolen from a yard on the Ballyard Road.

The car ended up in a collision with a telegraph pole on the Aghafad Road and was then set on fire before being abandoned.

"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.”
