“Fortunately, no one inside the address was injured. No arrests have been made at this time and our investigation remains in its early stages.

Local Councillor said in a statement
This was an appalling and extremely dangerous act. I can confirm that, thankfully, everyone living in the property is safe, as are the neighbouring family.
However, the impact has been devastating. The damage to the home is extensive and the family have lost everything, personal belongings, clothing, electrical items, and irreplaceable memories.
I have spoken directly with the family affected and their immediate neighbours this morning. They are understandably shaken by what they’ve experienced, but are being supported.
