A MAN who walked through streets in Burnley carrying a rifle before damaging a car by firing pellets at it is being sought by police.
Detectives have issued this CCTV image of a man they want to speak to after a car was targeted by the man with the air weapon.
The Vauxhall Astra was parked in Coal Clough Lane, when the suspect was seen walking down the road before firing a number of small pellets from an air weapon.
The shots caused dents to the vehicle and some paintwork to chip off.
The suspect is described as white, of stocky build, with short dark-brown hair thinning on top, and between 5ft10ins to 6ft tall.
He was aged between 30 and 40 years old and wearing a brown long-sleeved top with white writing on the chest and brown trousers and black footwear.
Anyone with information about the incident between 2pm and 11pm on Sunday, June 24 is asked to call police on 101.
