TV PRESENTER'S DISMAY AS NIGHT-STALKING ARSONISTS TARGET HIS HAMPSHIRE HOME

 

Chris Packham describes what happens in a video posted on Twitter

TV naturalist Chris Packham has pledged not to be intimidated by an arson attack on his Hampshire home shortly after midnight last Thursday. 

Two masked men dumped and set fire to a car. The flames immediately spread to the wooden gates and other parts of his property. 

In a video posted on Twitter, the presenter speculates that field sports enthusiasts may have been responsible, but he has vowed to continue speaking out against fox-hunting and related activities. 

He adds that he is regularly the subject of hate-crime - for instance, being trolled over social media and having dead animals or birds thrown into his garden. 

Last week's incident was recorded on CCTV, so, despite their masks, the culprits might yet be apprehended and prosecuted.
