Court told incident occurred following argument between teenagers in Belfast
A pregnant woman lost her unborn child after being assaulted during a violent incident over the weekend, a court heard on Monday.
Appearing at court by videolink from police custody, 33-year-old Kenneth McAteer grunted “um hum” when asked if he understood the ten charges against him including three assault charges, one weapons charge and six driving offences, all alleged to have been committed on August 27 this year. Giving evidence to the court Det. Const. Webb said he believed he could connect both men to their respective charges and during a contested bail application for McAteer, he outlined how police were called to “people fighting near McDonalds in Newry”.
Meanwhile McAteer allegedly “repositioned” the BMW X5 and used it to ram into a Mercedes car “three times at speed”, allegedly injuring a third female and causing “significant damage” to the front off side of the Mercedes before speeding off along the Armagh Road.
