VANDALS who broke into a Holme Valley firm went on a wrecking spree.

They forced their way into Earth Products at Fearnought Works on Huddersfield Road, Thongsbridge, and tipped over a boat that had been renovated inside.

They also broke into two lorries and drank beer inside them.

Damage estimated at £6,000 was caused during the break-in, which happened on Thursday night.

Police have appealed for witnesses.

Pc Dave McSweeney, of Huddersfield police, said: "The intruders drank from beer cans, which have been sent for forensic analysis. We would urge anyone who saw anything suspicious in the area or has any information to come forward."
