Residents left furious after spate of 'egging' incidents across Farsley on Monday night

Farsley residents have reacted with anger after a spate of 'egging incidents' in the village on Monday night.

Homes and cars were targeted in the series of incidents late on Monday according to residents.

Many took to social media to express their outrage at having to clear their windows - with one saying her kids were "traumatised".

A West Yorkshire Police spokesperson said an egg had been thrown at a passing car from the vicinity of the tennis courts on Westroyd Park.
