Detectives are appealing for information after a property in the Meadow Park area of Newtownards had windows smashed and was later subjected to an arson attack earlier today (Sunday, 16 July).
Detective Sergeant McGrory said “Shortly after 5:00 am this morning police received reports that 6 windows had been smashed at this property and entry had been gained with damage caused to the interior doors. PSNI attended the scene helping to secure the premises. Then after 7:00 am we received reports that the property had been set alight causing extensive damage downstairs and smoke damage to the rest of the house. Thankfully in the intervening period between the two attacks the occupant had left the property and as a result nobody was injured. These were quite reckless acts and we would wish to see the perpetrators brought to justice.
