The PSNI has confirmed it is treating the removal of a Union flag from a post in Co Tyrone as a "sectarian motivated hate crime".
A video of the incident, circulating on social media, shows a number of people walking along a road and in the distance a man is seen scaling a tall post in a field and removing the flag. The flag's removal is followed by a number of people cheering.
The incident occurred around the time of the Ulster Senior Football Championship semi-final which was played on Saturday at Healy Park in Omagh. The incident is understood to have happened on the Gortin Road, not far from Healy Park.
