Criminal damage at Sainsbury’s

North Yorkshire Police are appealing for witnesses and information about criminal damage to the window at Scarborough’s Sainsbury’s store on Falsgrave Road.

It is believed the suspect was involved in an attempted shoplifting incident just a few minutes before returning to the store to throw two rocks at the window, just before 7pm on Thursday October 13.

Although no-one was hurt, police say this could have been very different due to the “reckless” nature of how the damage was caused.

He is described as being in his late 20s, slim build, with darkbrown-blackhairandhas a distinctive Scottish accent.

Anyone with information should email mark.mcnulty@ northyorkshire.police.uk or call North Yorkshire Police on 101, select option 2, and ask for PC 882 Mark Mcnulty.

If you wish to remain anonymous, you can pass information to Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
