A Ford Fiesta is reported to have crashed into a number of people. The vehicle is then believed to have left the scene and was found abandoned a short distance away.
A woman in her 30s and a man in his 40s were both rushed to hospital with head injuries and a woman in her 40s was taken to hospital with back and facial injuries. None of the injuries are believed to be life threatening.
A 20-year-old woman, a 38-year-old woman and a 46-year-old were all arrested on suspicion of affray. Police have now confirmed one has been released on conditional bail, another released under investigation and a third remains in hospital for treatment.
Enquiries are ongoing to identify those involved.
Detective Inspector Lisa Milligan said: “We keen to speak to anyone who was in the North Road area around 9.30pm on Friday and saw or heard anything. This would have been a shocking thing to witness so if you were passing or live nearby and have dashcam or CCTV footage come forward as it may be key to the investigation.”
