A FAMILY was shocked to hear a loud bang when they were in the garden of their Widnes home, police disclosed today.
They discovered a large arrow had been fired into their garden in Prescot Road, piercing the roof of their garage.
A Cheshire Police spokesman said: “Fortunately, nobody was hurt in the incident.
“However, the consequences of such irresponsible behaviour could have potentially been far more serious and resulted in injury or damage.”
