boy and girl were attacked by a gun-wielding man in Bangor on Friday afternoon around 5:30 p.m. Both victims suffered head injuries during the incident in Castle Park and have since been discharged. A male attacker fled in the direction of Castle Park Road after the attack. PSNI Chief Inspector David Gray said: “We are treating this as a racially motivated attack which was completely unprovoked. “Hate crime has no place in society. “It should be rejected and condemned by all. But to target two children in this way is especially disgusting. “I would like to appeal to the public to contact us with any information that may assist our investigation. “We are attempting to locate a man described as wearing a dark/navy hoodie with a lighter colored hood and dusty work trousers, carrying a plastic bag to be found in the Castle Park or Castle Park Road area yesterday, Friday 26th August at around 5.30pm .m. “If you were in the area on Friday afternoon and saw anyone fitting the description above, please contact us on 101 quoting reference number 1488 26/08/22.”
