No one was injured in the attack which occurred at around 2.45 a.m. in Market Square.
Meanwhile a 34-year-old man was attacked by seven individuals including two women in the Alexander area of Armagh at around midnight. The man sustained a number of fractures to his ribs and upper body but is said to be in a stable condition in hospital today.
