"It is vital that members of the public who saw or heard anything contact us as matter of urgency so we can apprehend those responsible.
"We are carrying out a number of lines of enquiry including witness and CCTV enquiries and would ask any motorists who were in the local area to check their dash cam to see if they captured anything significant."
