Brazen Break-Ins Shake Nottingham Student Flats Twice in One Week
At least four vandals broke into a communal common room at a student property on Faraday Road, Lenton, late at night on 26 October. They left empty-handed but caused damage to a door. Just days later, the same crew struck again on 2 November, forcing entry once more and wrecking the door further — still, nothing was stolen.
Police Hunt Suspect Over Student Accommodation Vandals
Nottinghamshire Police have now released an image of a man they want to speak to in connection with the twin break-ins. Sergeant Neil Langham stressed the impact of the damage, saying:
“A door inside the student accommodation was severely damaged during these incidents, which impacted both those living there and those tasked with maintaining the common room too. Criminal damage is a serious offence that can, as demonstrated here, affect people in a multitude of ways, whether that be financial or from an emotional standpoint.”
The force urged anyone who recognises the man in the photo to come forward with information.
