Chief Inspector Clare Anderson, from GMP’s Wigan district, said: “Criminal damage can feel like an incredibly personal crime, and I want people to know that we are utilising all of the resources available to us to locate the person who is responsible. I would urge anyone with information to please get in touch with us – no matter how small you may think it is – as it could greatly assist our investigation.”
