The smashed window in the police car

Two officers were sitting in a marked police car in Maytree Close, Chemsley Wood, at around 11.15pm yesterday doing some paperwork, while waiting for recovery as they had a flat tyre.

A brick was thrown through the rear window, which hit one of the officers on the head.

The officer − who doesn’t wish to be named − suffered a head injury which required medical treatment from ambulance workers.

Fortunately she is okay − although she is shaken and upset about what happened.
