A man’s wanted by police after a Wiltshire court had its windows smashed.

Four panes of glass at the entrance to Swindon Magistrates’ Court were damaged using rocks.

The incident happened at around 2.50am on 7 June, with CCTV footage highlighting the prime suspect.

Now police want to arrest the alleged offender over the attack on a judicial building.

A force spokesperson said: “We believe this man may be able to help with our enquiries.

“If this is you, or you recognise this person, please contact Wiltshire Police either online, or using 101 quoting log 54240066001.”

In an unrelated incident in September 2023, a man rode a pedal go-kart to the same court building and smashed 31 windows before being detained in a mental health facility.
