A WOMAN has been left with facial injuries after a man armed with a baseball bat smashed in the windows of a house in Co. Down.

Police are appealing for information after the incident in Lenaderg, near Banbridge on Monday, April 24.

“He was described as being ‘well-built’ and wearing a grey hooded top.”

They added: “One woman, aged in her fifties, who was in the property at the time sustained a facial injury while a second woman and a man, aged in their seventies and eighties were thankfully, physically uninjured.

“All three have been left badly shaken by the ordeal.”
