CCTV image released after paint thrown at houses in Rugby
Warwickshire Police have released a CCTV image connected to its investigation into paint being thrown on houses in Rugby.
As we have previously reported, officers said five houses near Technology Drive are believed to have been targeted on the night of Wednesday, August 19, with some cars also having paint splashed on them.
An appeal for information and witnesses was issued by officers during August, but officers have now released a CCTV image of people who could help them with their ongoing investigation.
Homes in Bath Street were similarly targeted on August 13.
A spokesperson from Warwickshire Police said: “We know this image is not as good quality as we would hope, however we have taken the decision to share it as it still clearly shows what clothes the men were wearing and anyone who knows them personally may well recognise them from this.”
“If you are either of these men, or if you know who they are, please call 101 or visit: www.warwickshire.police.uk/ro/report giving crime reference 23/37170/26.”
Talking at the time of the attacks, Sgt Ricky Franklin said cars were also damaged and had graffiti spray painted on them while some houses had notes pushed through the door relating to the graffiti.
Sgt Franklin said: "We would like to reassure residents that enquiries are ongoing following these recent acts of vandalism, which are unacceptable.
"The damage that has been caused will take significant time and effort to fix, however our officers are investigating and will be looking into the circumstances of what happened in each case.”
