A group of kids terrorised a McDonald's before targeting an ice cream van in a mindless attack.

Officers were called to Two Saints McDonald's in Ormskirk on Saturday, May 7 at around 5pm after a large group of kids were seen causing a nuisance. The group then split up and a smaller group headed for Coronation Park where two threw a brick through the rear windscreen of an ice cream van that was parked at the entrance of the park.

The group then reportedly ran in the direction of the cemetery following the vandalism, with one wearing a royal blue jumper and one in a light jumper, both wearing black trousers and have dark hair. The victim of the vandalism has not only lost out on money but is shaken by the incident.
