Miscreants hurled petrol bombs on a house in Thudiyalur, early in the morning today. In the process, a motorbike parked in front of the house caught fire. Police however suspect that the vandals had attacked the wrong house.

The house which was attacked belonged to Gibson, a retired employee of Tantea. He came out of the house on hearing the noises and saw the motorcycle burning.

The police believe that the intended target of the attack was a Hindu Munnani activist who lived in the opposite house. Further investigations are on.
