Police are now appealing to anyone who may have witnessed what happened to come forward. Officers are particularly interested in hearing from people who were travelling through the area at the time of the incident.
Investigators are also asking motorists who may have been using dashcams to check their recordings. Footage captured before, during or immediately after the incident could potentially assist officers as they establish what happened.
Members of the public who recorded anything on a mobile phone are also being encouraged to contact police. Even footage that may appear to show only part of the incident could potentially provide useful information to investigators.
Police are additionally seeking information from anyone who may know the identity of the men involved. Members of the public with relevant information can contact officers as part of the ongoing investigation.

Four arrests were made at the scene, but police have not provided further information about the identities of those arrested or any charges arising from the incident. The investigation remains ongoing.
Anyone who was in the Park Road Roundabout area at the relevant time and saw the incident is being asked to consider whether they have information that could assist the investigation.
