A teenager has been arrested after an attempted hijacking in Derry.
Police are appealing for witnesses following the incident that occurred in the Shipquay Street area last Friday evening.
At approximately 10.30pm, a woman was assaulted while she was in a car, believed to be a black Vauxhall Corsa.
A young male tried to take her car keys but the woman was able to drive away.
A 15 year old male was later arrested in connection with this incident.
He has since been released on police bail pending further enquiries.
A PSNI spokesperson said: “We are appealing for anyone, including the victim, who may have witnessed the assault to contact Strand Road Police Station on 101, quoting reference number 1411 of 19/08/16.
“Or, if someone would prefer to provide information without giving their details they can contact the independent charity Crimestoppers and speak to them anonymously on 0800 555 111.”
