EXCREMENT has been smeared on a front door in Herefordshire in an attack on a home in the city.

The incident also saw gloss paint thrown over a car and offensive words painted on a wall, in addition to the faeces smeared on the door, including on the handle, in Credenhill's Robinson Close on Sunday, September 29.

Police community support officer Adam Westlake said the incident, which happened between 9.05pm and 9.20am, has left the occupant "understandably very shaken by what's happened".
