LONDON: A sledgehammer-wielding man was seen smashing windows at two mosques in Britain's second city Birmingham and three more have been similarly vandalised overnight, the police said Thursday.
Counter-terrorism officers are investigating attacks on the mosques in different areas in the central English city, West Midlands Police said in a statement.
The force added the incidents were "being treated as linked".
"We don't know the motive for last night's attacks," said Chief Constable Dave Thompson in a statement.
