Police have charged four men after a van failed to stop and counterfeit currency was seized early on Saturday.
The incident happened in the Newtownhamilton area in Co Armagh shortly before midday on March 21 when a white coloured van had failed to stop for An Garda Síochána heading towards Middletown.
A short time later police on patrol on Armagh Road in Moy observed the van and signalled for it to stop, but it failed to come to a halt and made off.
The van was seen again in Newtownhamilton where it struck two police vehicles before making off again towards Newry.
A PSNI spokesperson said: "Police deployed a stinger device on the Drumnahunshin Road in order to bring the van to a stop. The van rammed another police vehicle before making off again.
"The van was finally stopped by police on Carrickcloughen Hill in Camlough.
Police have charged four males, aged 25, 28, 32 and 35, with a number of offences, including possessing counterfeit currency and possession of an offensive weapon in a public place.
"The 28 year old male has also been charged with a number of motoring offences."
All four are expected to appear before Newry Magistrates Court tomorrow, Monday 23 March.
