'Sustained minor injuries'
Police said they had gone to the house to arrest a man in his 40s in connection with alleged threats to kill, threats to destroy or damage property, false imprisonment and obstructing police.
Superintendent Alan McCrum said: "These arise from an incident on 8 November 2006, when an officer who had driven onto the same premises to turn his vehicle was obstructed from leaving and threatened.
"Officers were obstructed from carrying out the arrest this morning by a number of people. Two officers were assaulted, neither requiring hospital treatment.
"As a result, a male aged in his late teens was arrested."
He added: "Both men sustained minor injuries during the incident. Both were seen by a doctor at Newry police station.
"Contrary to reports, neither arrested person sustained any injury which required hospital treatment."
The PSNI said a 19-year-old man had been charged with obstruction, resisting arrest and assault on police. He is expected to appear at Newry Magistrates Court on 20 December.
