Bricks were thrown at a home and windows were smashed in another ‘racially motivated hate crime’ in south Belfast.

The incident happened at around 9.55pm on Wednesday in the Lindsay Way area of Donegall Pass.

A police spokesperson said, “Luckily, the resident who was inside at the time wasn’t injured but has been left shaken by their ordeal.

“This type of act is unacceptable and we are treating this as a racially motivated hate crime.”

The police are appealing for anyone with information surrounding the incident to come forward.
