Six photographers’ cars parked near home of Manchester United footballer have been vandalised by group of masked assailants Six cars belonging to photographers that were parked near the home of Ryan Giggs have been vandalised by a group of masked assailants. Police were called to the Manchester United midfielder’s house in Salford on Tuesday after vandals jumped out of a Ford Transit van and attacked the vehicles. No photographers are thought to have been injured in the attack. Their cars are believed to have been targeted because of the media attention surrounding Giggs. Greater Manchester police issued a statement saying they were called to Giggs’ house shortly after 3.20pm “following reports a number of cars had been damaged”. “Officers… discovered at least six cars had been vandalised after offenders arrived in a Ford Transit van and attacked the vehicles.” The former Wales captain was named in the House of Commons on Monday as the footballer alleged to have had an extra-marital affair with the model Imogen Thomas. Greater Manchester police said inquiries into the incident are ongoing. More details soon… Privacy & the media Superinjunctions Injunctions Ryan Giggs Josh Halliday guardian.co.uk
