A lorry driver has been stabbed during a robbery in Co Tyrone this afternoon.
He was attacked by a man and a teenager during a raid on his vehicle near the Ulster American Folk Park in Omagh.
The victim, who was driving a red Scania lorry, was stopped in a lay-by off the Beltany Road just after 2pm by a man who opened the passenger door and climbed into the cab, police said.
The intruder, believed to be in his mid-20s, ordered the driver to go to the Gortrush Industrial Estate where he was told to drive round several times. He was then forced to travel on to the Bankmore Road and told to stop.
At this stage a youth aged about 15 siphoned fuel from the vehicle, a PSNI spokeswoman said.
"The driver was forced to hand over his watch and a sum of money before one of the men stabbed him in the arm with a knife."
The driver needed hospital treatment for his wound, receiving several stitches.
