Boys sought after object hits car
A gang of boys who threw objects from a bridge onto a road, hitting the roof of a car, are being hunted by police.

Surrey Police said a 25-year-old man escaped injury when the sun roof of his vehicle smashed as he drove along Molesey Road, in Walton, last Tuesday.

The suspects, described as white, aged about 10 years old, and riding bikes, had been spotted throwing objects from the bridge at Hersham Railway Station.

No-one was hurt in the incident, which happened at 9.20pm.

Insp Craig Knight said the youngsters were probably local to the area.

He urged parents to ensure they knew the whereabouts of their children and what they were doing.
