Crampton & Moore on Commercial Street had only just reopened after a flood forced it to close. It is now back open for business but with the window boarded up.

Just a week after reopening due to a flood, a Harrogate shop has had its windows smashed by bricks and boulders.

The electrical goods store, Crampton & Moore, on Commercial Street is boarded up following the incident in the early hours of Saturday morning.

Store manager Chris Johnson said he received a call at 2.15am on Saturday to say the glass had be smashed.

He said North Yorkshire Police called within 15 minutes about the incident.

The window pane needs replacing but thanks to metal grills behind it, nothing was stolen.



Mr Johnson said:

"The whole thing was caught on CCTV. Luckily they didn't get anything so it's just a case of waiting for the repair this week."


The shop had only reopened on Monday last week after the eight-week flood closure.

The shop remains open, with the damaged section closed off to customers.

North Yorkshire Police said in a statement:

"A man in his 50s was promptly arrested on suspicion of attempted burglary following this incident. He’s been bailed while the investigation continues."
