Vandals have smeared “offensive and obscene” words on the fences and garage doors of four properties.

The criminal damage was carried out in Trinity Avenue and Plumpton Avenue in Mildenhall, with two homes targeted in each road.

All four had fences vandalised, with purple paint used to write a variety of words.

Police are now looking for information into the vandalism, which took place between Sunday evening and Monday morning.

Anyone with information should call PC Daniel Smyth at Mildenhall Police on 101.
