Appeal after masked men smash pub windows

We are investigating after two masked men smashed several windows at a pub in Shelton.

We were called by a member of the public to a disturbance on Sun Street, just before 2.15am, on Tuesday 9 January. On arrival, officers discovered that all eight ground-floor windows at the Shoulder of Mutton pub had been damaged.

CCTV shows two males wearing hoods and balaclavas arriving at the pub from the direction of Milton Street.

One of the offenders is seen breaking windows on Sun Street, whilst the other smashes those facing onto Mount Pleasant. It is believed that both males used a crowbar in the attack. Footage shows the offenders running off towards Milton Street.
