A dad caught up in a terrifying vandal attack on a family-run business said his two young sons "could have been killed" after a large brick was hurled past their heads.

He said: "At first we thought it was either a car backfiring, someone had had a crash, or someone had dropped something in the shop. It was just one big boom.
