Police investigating a suspected targeted attack on a family's home in Bognor Regis have issued a CCTV image as part of their investigations.

It's after significant damage was caused to the windows of a residential address in Andrew Avenue.

The incident, which appears to be a targeted attack possibly using a hammer, occurred around 3am on Wednesday 9 February.

The suspect is described as a white man, approximately 40 years of age, about 5'9”, of slim build and with a dark beard.

Investigating officer, PC Matt Fisher, said:

“This incident has left a family in fear of leaving their address and fearful that they will be subject to further damage to their property.

"I am hopeful that someone will know who this individual is and can assist us in bringing them to justice and give those affected some peace of mind.”

If you recognise the person in the CCTV image report it by calling 101, quoting crime reference number 47220024450.
