House damaged in petrol-bomb attack

A house has been damaged in a petrol-bomb attack in Newtownards.

The incident at a property in the Glenbrook Road area of the town was reported to police just after 10pm on Tuesday evening.

The device was thrown at the front door and left scorch marks.

No-one was injured, but a PSNI spokesman said it was a “reckless attack that could have resulted in more serious consequences”.

Inquiries into the incident are under way, and police are appealing for anyone who may have witnessed anything suspicious in the area to contact them on 101, quoting reference 1920 of 19/09/23.
