Three arrested after disorder in north Belfast

Three men, aged 26, 28 and 42-years-old, have been arrested in north Belfast on suspicion of a number of offences, including criminal damage.

It followed reports of a car being hijacked by a group of masked men on Fingal Street at about 20:45 BST on Tuesday.

Police say the car was deliberately driven at the front of a business on Woodvale Road, causing minimal damage to the building, before the men made off from the scene.

Shortly after 21:25 BST police received reports that masked men were smashing windows in the Rathlin Street area.

In a statement, Superintendent Allister Hagan said police are treating the reports as racially motivated hate crimes.

Officers remained on patrol in the area on Tuesday night.
