Policemen The multiple incidents that occurred in Dungannon on Saturday night are under investigation.
From about 10:40 in the evening to about 2:30 in the morning, there were reports of incidents in the Ballygawley Road area.

Two police cars were damaged after a petrol bomb and other missiles were dropped.
In one of the reported incidents, a petrol bomb was also thrown at a car driven by the public.
Police said that furniture on the street was also set ablaze to stop passing vehicles.
Sheriff Knipe, from the police station Northern Ireland Said: “These are the shameful scenes that happened last night, and we are grateful that no one was hurt. What happened last night is totally unacceptable and intolerable.
“The police have spoken to residents of the area who were shocked by the incident. The community hopes that their area will become better and live without fear.
“We call on those who think this behavior is acceptable to see what destroying your own community will bring. This puts more stress on emergency services is not the way forward.

“We will continue to monitor the area and warn anyone who intends to participate in such criminal activities to think twice.
“While we are investigating these incidents, I call on people who witnessed what happened in the area last night or who caught what happened on a dash cam to dial 101 and call us.”
Rear Congressman Clement Cuthbertson blamed the riots on Republicans.
He said in a social media post: “The Republicans rioted last night, Dun Cannon’s shameful behavior.”
“Someone threw stones at NIFRS, they were asked to participate in the anti-detention campfire, and then the road was blocked later in the evening.
“I will talk to the senior police on this matter. The union community will closely monitor the actions taken by the police (if any).
“All in all (sic), people seem to have been turning a blind eye to this violent incident in Dun Cannon, and the protests against the (Northern Ireland) agreement have deployed a different and stricter policing approach.”
