REPUBLICAN Sinn Fein said vehicles were hijacked and burned to set up road blocks as a 'reaction' to a police 'invasion' of Drumbeg and Meadowbrook.

Republican Sinn Fein said in a statement to the 'MAIL': "A large force of armed RUC/PSNI in up to 15 Land Rovers arrived to raid a house in the Drumbeg estate at around 8.30am.

"Around 1.30pm they were reinforced by another five Land Rovers."
