Officers were called shortly before 12.15am on Monday, April 22, after the occupants of a Lowestoft property on Long Road, near Homefield Avenue, were startled by a sudden loud noise at the window.

It was reported that the outer pane of glass had shattered, caused by an unknown item being thrown at the window.

Anyone who witnessed the incident or saw any suspicious behaviour is urged to contact the Lowestoft Response Team at Suffolk Constabulary by calling 101, quoting reference 22600/19.
