A spate of vandalism took place in Melksham last week, as cars and houses were daubed with paint.

Poster paint was thrown over several vehicles parked along Somerset Crescent overnight on July 24, while a BMW 330 on Primrose Drive and a Seat Leon on Williams Close were also targeted.

Paint was also thrown at a front door in Pembroke Road at around 2am.

The incidents are not being treated as criminal damage, as much of the paint has washed off, but Melksham Police are appealing for anyone with information to contact them on 101.

On Sunday, a Ford Ka on Snarlton Lane also had white and yellow paint thrown over it shortly before midnight.
