An elderly woman’s home has been targeted twice by vandals in North Yorkshire.
Police say a brick was thrown through the door of the 72-year-old’s home in Hambleton Place, Thirsk, and left a petrol can outside the property in the early hours of Saturday. In the second incident, just before midnight on Monday, a boulder was thrown through her window and a petrol can left inside the property.
Police are carrying out door-to-door inquiries in the area and appealing for anyone who knows anything about the incidents to come forward.
