Wanted men who had been in Donegal are assaulted in Armagh

Two men who were wanted by the PSNI have been attacked in County Armagh over the weekend.
A vigilante group set upon James White and Jason Lydiard, also known as Alexis Guesto, who were wanted for a number of offences by both the Gardai and the PSNI. Both had previously served time for child sex offences.
The pair were cornered in the Mullaghbawn area and beaten with iron bars before being tied up and covered with blue paint on Saturday night.
The two men were taken to hospital for treatment where one remains this morning, the other has been arrested.
The PSNI says “there can never be an excuse for people to take the law into their own hands”.
The two men had spent some time in Donegal earlier this month before crossing back into Northern Ireland.
