A resident has escaped injury following an overnight arson attack in Lisburn.
Police received a report just after 5.45am on Friday 12 July that two petrol bombs had been thrown at a house in Manor Park.
The attack caused smoke and scorch damage to the front of the building.
A bin was also set alight.
The resident of the property was at home at the time, but was unaware of the attack.
A police spokesperson said: “Thankfully, no-one was injured. Had the petrol bombs smashed the window at which they were thrown, we could have been dealing with much more serious consequences this morning.
“We are appealing to anyone with information regarding this incident to contact police by calling 101, quoting reference 389 of 12/07/24.”
