The driver of a silver Vauxhall Vectra has been arrested on suspicion of thefts and several motoring offences following incidents in the Dromore and Drumquin areas.
A PSNI spokesperson said: "Following a request from West Tyrone Neighbourhood team, officers from the District Support Team were out and about [on Saturday night, August 20] around the Dromore and Drumquin areas on the hunt for a silver Vauxhall Vectra.
"This Vectra is believed to have been involved in a spate of thefts of such items as flower pots and wood from both villages in the last few days.
"After some expert driving that Starsky and Hutch would be proud of, we managed to stop our target vehicle on the Dooish Road, where we arrested the driver for thefts and several motoring offences including fraudulent use of number plates," said the PSNI spokesperson.
They added: "West Tyrone Neighbourhood team are now progressing the investigations and hopefully will have more good news to share in the next few weeks."
