POLICE IN NORTHERN IRELAND are appealing for witnesses following an incident in which a brick thrown through a window of a house landed in a baby’s cot.
The incident happened in the Tarragon Park area of Antrim in the early hours of yesterday morning.
The PSNI is treating the incident as a hate crime.
Sergeant John Hamilton said: “At 2:20am (yesterday) two windows at the property, one at the front kitchen and one at an upstairs bedroom were smashed.
“The piece of brick used to smash the upstairs window landed in a one-year-old baby’s cot. However, due to being sick the baby was lying with their parents at the time. These reckless actions could have caused serious injury had this not been the case.
We are appealing to anyone that may have any information or to anyone that may have witnessed any suspicious activity in the area at the time to contact Antrim police on the non-emergency number 101.
“Alternatively if someone would prefer to provide information without giving their details, they can contact the independent charity Crimestoppers and speak to them anonymously on 0800 555 111.”

Been getting my hair cut in Pip Connolly’s since the late 70′s – he won’t take new customers now, only his regulars, but he’s still going strong.
Great to see Eric’s shots – the story of Ireland, along with the likes of Matt Kavanagh and Peter Thursfield.
Careful Eamon, some lefty types might accuse you of being a racist.
Well lefties and also people who aren’t racists.
Why? Because multiculturalism is a load of tripe? All races are equally OK, all cultures are not.
@Greg Blake:
Imported medievalism dressed up in progressive authoritarianism and liberal bigotry.
Great photos, Eric. Very evocative. You were always a great photographer, and a gentleman to work with back in the IP days.
You’d hardly know the place now.
That’s a good thing though,the empty churches are a sign of progress and better education.
@Tariq ibn Ziyad: Odd, my church is not empty
That may be the case Easter,but it’s unusual to only have one pew in a church.
Multi cult hell hole.….. Catch a grip of yourself.
Great images
have your say
