Another home attacked in Drumbawn estate


Another home has come under night/early morning attack in Drumbawn housing estate in Enniskillen where, just a couple of weeks ago, a home was stoned and windows broken in the early morning as a mother and her 10-year old daughter slept.

The mother, Lucia Donnelly, speaking to the 'Herald', said it was time that the Housing Executive, and the PSNI did something to restore normality to the estate.

"I have been left alone since, but the carry-on seems to be going on our there still.

"There was another home attack in the early hours of Sunday morning. This estate is definitely under siege. I think it's pot-luck whichever house is attacked".

A Housing Executive spokeswoman said the Executive was determined to tackle situations where unacceptable forms of behaviour are causing distress and anxiety to other residents.

'We are aware that there is problem in this area.

"Anti-social behaviour is not something the Housing Executive can address on its own.

"If the Housing Executive or any other agency such as the PSNI is to take action in any individual case, this will require verifiable evidence.

'The District Office will respond to any instances of alleged of anti-social behaviour, and the Housing Executive has procedures in place for dealing with such matters.

"We would urge this tenant (Ms Donnelly) and other residents to provide as much information as possible to the local Housing Executive office. This will allow us to take whatever action is deemed appropriate'.

But, Lucia Donnelly wondered what more evidence the Housing Executive needed before they acted.

"It has got to the point where they're going to have to do something.

"The amount of people we have been talking to who are all wanting to move out because things are getting that bad. It's like a war zone.

"Between myself and other residents who are ringing in complaints, you would think with the amount of complaints the Housing Executive and the Police are getting that they would have plenty of evidence.

"They should get off their backsides and get something done.

"My daughter is grand now, but it has annoying her now that her little friend has been a victim this time.

"It really has got to the point that I would love to get on and get out, but I know I can't because there is nowhere to go".

A Police spokeswoman said it had received a report that two windows of a house in Drumbawn were damaged at approximately 1am on Sunday last, 13th April.

"Enquiries into the incident are continuing and police are asking anyone with information to come forward", she added.
