Gardaí are appealing for witnesses after a silver Lexus collided with a Garda patrol car in Enfield, Co Meath on Sunday afternoon.

Between three and four men driving a silver Lexus fled the Innwood Estate in Enfield, Co Meath at around 3.15pm on Sunday, November 3rd after hitting a parked vehicle and a garda car.

Upon their arrival, the driver reversed the Lexus into a parked vehicle before colliding with the Garda patrol car. The vehicle then mounted the foot path and fled the scene at high speed in the direction of Rathmolyon. The Lexus lost its back bumper as it left the estate.
