A 33-year-old man has been arrested following a hijacking in Co Down last night.
The driver of a Translink bus was threatened by a man armed with a knife at the bus stop on Cairnsmore Avenue in Ballybeen shortly before 8pm.
The man forced the bus driver to drive for a distance before forcing him and passengers off the bus at knifepoint.
The bus was then involved in a collision a short distance away at which point the hijacker fled.
