VANDALS are smashing their way through a derelict house in Colchester.
Incidents of criminal damage are occuring repeatedly at the home in St Clare's Drive.
The home was damaged at 5pm on June 2, midday on August 3, 6pm the next day and most recently, at about 2pm on August 18.
A spokesman for Essex Police said: "We have received reports of teenagers gaining access via Lexden Park.
"Officers want to stress that this type of mindless vandalism is not acceptable and they are committing a criminal offence and the house, although not occupied, is owned by someone."
Anyone with information call Det Con Tim Harris at Colchester CID on 101 or Crimestoppers on 0800 555111.
