Horrified residents watched as men armed with baseball bats attacked a Burnham house while shouting non-stop abuse in a reign of violence lasting up to an hour.

It is believed the group of men were looking for the occupant, who had been evicted from the Moat housing association house two weeks earlier.

Worried neighbours called police numerous times as they watched the scene unfold in Alamein Road.
