A police vehicle in Northern Ireland has been damaged after it was hit by a lorry that was reported stolen in the Republic of Ireland.

The lorry, which was reported stolen from the Donegal area, failed to stop for Gardaí (Irish police) and then drove off in the direction of Strabane, County Tyrone, on Thursday evening.

The lorry failed to stop for police again and hit a parked police vehicle.

No officers were in the vehicle at the time, the PSNI said.
