A FURIOUS trader is offering a reward to find the thugs who smashed his shop window, causing £2,000 worth of damage.
Yobs broke the window belonging to Household Bliss, Load Street, Bewdley on Friday night, in what police have admitted was an "unusual incident".
Shop owner Mike Gammond - who has put up £100 for an arrest and conviction - said: "It's a massive problem for me because my insurance will go up. It looks like someone has hit it with a traffic cone."
It was the latest headache to hit the shop and was sparked by late-night drunken behaviour, said Mr Gammond.
Urine, vomit and empty beer bottles were a frequent sight in the shop doorway come the morning, he said.
Beat manager PC Nigel Barter said of the damage to the window - which measures four by two metres: "It is unusual, this sort of thing is not a regular occurrence at all. It has made me prick up my eyes and ears."
Anyone with information about the incident should call Kidderminster Police on 08457 444 888.
