Kilrea: Three men in court accused of trying to kidnap woman

Summarising the case, Judge Magill said the woman called police at 16:30 GMT on Wednesday and said “that she and her partner were being chased in a car and that it had been rammed”.

“She could be heard screaming and she said that efforts were being made by multiple cars to box them in,” the judge said.

He added that other cars were rammed and three police officers were injured.

The scene then moved to a filling station on Maghera Street where the woman “was attacked by numerous people, including the defendants”.

Judge Magill said that according to the police, there was CCTV footage of the incident where the defendants allegedly “surround the car”.

The woman went inside the filling station for safety but the Montgomery brothers could be seen “loitering at the front door waiting for her”.

The woman was allegedly “set upon by both” the Montgomery brothers and “dragged by the coat along the ground” until they “[pinned] her to the car”, the judge said.

Two cars nearby were being driven by Mr Heaney and a fourth man, Leon McGlinchey, 31, and all four have been arrested.

Mr McGlinchey, from Moyola Avenue in Castledawson, appeared in court on Friday charged with 11 offences including driving while unfit, dangerous driving, failing to stop for police, three charges of failing to provide a specimen of breath, driving with neither insurance nor a licence, theft of a coat and phone, criminal damage and obstructing police.

He was also refused bail and remanded into custody until 23 December.
