HOOLIGANS damaged the windows of two different takeaways in Stevenage last night, leaving them cracked and needing repairs.

The Sumar takeaway and the Old Town Fish Bar, both on the High Street, were struck twice by the vandals at around 3am last night, leaving cracks in the panes.

After the damage, the group ran off by foot down an alleyway.

Three men were witnessed in the attacks, and police would like to hear from anyone with information.

Two of the suspects were described as being between 16 and 17, of a slim build with black hair. The third suspect is thought the be in his mid-twenties, about six-foot tall and with blonde hair.
