Convenience Store Window Broken

Friday 30 September 2011

A shop window has been broken after an irate customer took out his frustration on the shopfront.

Police are appealing for witnesses and information after the incident, which took place at 4:20pm yesterday afternoon.

A young man entered the shop and attempted to purchase cigarette papers. After the man was unable to produce identification when asked, he left the shop and kicked the shop window three times, causing it to break.

The offender is described as a white man, aged approximately 17 years old and wearing a grey t-shirt and blue jeans. He had a medium sized white dog with him, which was on a lead.

PC Stephen Gent is investigating and said: "I would like to speak to anyone who was passing the shop at the time and may have seen what happened". Anyone with information should contact the police on 101.
