Police are appealing for witnesses and information following a report of criminal
damage to a speed indicator device on the Curragh Road, Aghadowey.
It was reported to police significant damage had been caused to the sign after it was
removed from its post by a vehicle and later recovered on the nearby Glasgort Road.

“We understand three people exited the vehicle and attached the speed indicator
device to it. They then drove off in the direction of the Bann Road.
“This device is owned by Causeway Coast and Glens Borough Council PCSP and offers education to road users of their speed to enhance road safety.
“We are therefore very concerned about its theft and subsequent damage – valued at approximately £4,000
