A paint attack on a north Belfast Orange Hall yesterday (July 14) is being treated as a sectarian hate crime by the PSNI.
White paint was thrown at the hall on Clifton Street at around 1.30pm on Sunday, splattering a fence and wall.
Inspector Natalie McNally said police in north Belfast are appealing for witnesses after criminal damage was caused to the Orange Hall.
“We are appealing for anyone who might have information about this, which is being treated as a sectarian hate crime, to contact us on 101 quoting 1665 of 14/07/19,” she said.
Alternatively information can also be provided by calling the independent charity Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
