Hi I’m Molly. I’m a three and a half year old boxer with a long tail with a distinctive twist in it. I went missing on the night of 17th February from my home in Trillick. When I was last seen I was wearing a broad brown collar. Oh yes and I’m chipped so if you find me please take me to a vet and they’ll be able to call my owner.

A huge thank you to all the staff at Danske Bank, Omagh for hosting our latest Police Pit Stop and mass shredding event this morning. Thanks also to everyone who stopped and spoke with us and for sharing your concerns and experiences of cold callers, scams and nuisance telephone calls. If you have been the victim of a scam please do let us know. We realise that many people feel embarrassed at having been scammed and are often reluctant to come forward. Events like those today can help raise awareness and prevent people from falling victim to the scammers. #policepitstop

Stabbed, burnt and near starved to death! The terrifyingly true story of one males struggle with domestic violence.
In a recent BBC documentary, the story of 23 year old Alex Skeel unfolds in front of the viewer's eyes. It details the terrible trauma of victims of domestic violence. The documentary is a prime example of the social stigma associated with male victims coming forward to police.
Although, in recent years there has been a significant rise in male victims contactin...g police, we are aware that some men are reluctant to ask for help! Domestic violence does not discriminate, and neither does your police service.
If you, or anyone you know is suffering with any form of domestic abuse, please contact us via 101.
