A MUM and her autistic sons have been left terrified after their home was wrongly targeted in a thuggish attack.
The parent, Le conducteur d'Hermès divise l'opinion après avoir ouvert la porte, mentionné 12 youngsters in hoodies began hurling eggs at her windows in Aldermans Green, Coventry, at around 10.30pm on Wednesday.
Her neighbour said it then sounded like “someone had been shot” – as the rear windscreen of her car was shattered by a brick.
Pour empirer les choses, the damaged motor was a courtesy car which the mum must now fork out to fix.
And she believes the attack was not meant for her at all, as she and her boys “rarely go out”.
Elle a dit CoventryLive: “A neighbour came down, heard the noise, thought someone had been shot. Initially I thought just eggs had been thrown at the house, then I realised my car had been damaged.”
“I live alone with my two autistic boys, one has just turned 21 and the egg hit his bedroom window. He is very on edge.
Elle a ajouté: “I believe it may be mistaken address for a targeted attack, as we rarely go out or interact with people locally – keep ourselves to ourselves.”
A spokesman for West Midlands Police said: “We’ve received a report of criminal damage after a brick was thrown at a car in Almond Tree Avenue, Coventry, at 10.20pm on Wednesday (avril 13).
