Injured man released from hospital
Thursday, 5 January 2012
A 19-year-old man who had been found with serious head injuries in the Omagh area during the early hours of Tuesday of last week, has since been released from hospital.
The young man had been found lying at the entrance to Gardenville Avenue, just off the main Gortin Road, shortly before 5am on December 27, and was rushed to Altnagelvin Area Hospital, Londonderry, in a 'critical condition'.
However, a spokesperson for Altnagelvin Hospital yesterday (Tuesday) confirmed that the man was now in a 'stable condition' and was being released from hospital.
Police who are investigating the circumstances surrounding the incident, have renewed their appeal for anyone with information to come forward.
Stating that it was still not known as to how the man received his injuries, a PSNI spokesperson, said: "Anyone who saw anything suspicious in the area is asked to contact Police in Omagh on 0845 600 8000. Or, if someone would prefer to provide information without giving their details, they can contact the independent charity Crimestoppers and speak to them anonymously on 0800 555 111."
