A house has been targeted in a series of criminal damage and arson attacks.

Most recently, CCTV footage has captured a man throwing bitumen paint all over the drive and entrance of the property at Green lane in Oxhey Hall.

Police say there have been two other incidents outside the same house.

Hertfordshire Constabulary has released a short video showing the moment a man approached the home with a bucket and when he poured the paint across front.

Detective Constable Steve Mason, said: “We have reason to believe the victim is being targeted and we have carried out extensive enquiries to try and trace who is responsible, but are now at a point in our investigation where we are releasing footage of the suspect in a bid to identify them.

“We appreciate that you cannot get a clear view of their face, but perhaps you may recognise their clothing or their gait?

“If you have any information which you think may assist our enquiries, then please get in touch as a matter of urgency.”

Anyone with information is asked to contact carly.fry@herts.police.uk or report online at herts.police.uk/report or call 101.
