Police were today hunting a group of vandals who are thought to be responsible for reaping havoc twice within an hour in Canvey's Central Avenue.

The trouble started on Sunday evening at around 9.45pm when officers were called after a brick was hurled through the front window of a home.

Then, within 45 minutes, police were alerted to the area again after a "for sale" sign was launched through a parked car's window.
