Young Scots mum left terrified after yob put firework through letterbox while baby slept in bed

A new mum was left terrified after a yob put a lit firework through the letterbox of her home in Glasgow while her baby slept in bed.

Lauren Mcginlay, 18, was upstairs with her 11-week-old baby when she heard the explosive, which was posted into the property on Ashgill Road in Milton, go off at around 7.20pm on Tuesday, October 18. Lauren, who lives with her boyfriend, mum, two sisters aged 13 and seven, her autistic six-year-old brother and little TJ, said the terrified family thought a bomb had gone off.

The teenager's mum raced to the front door and found an empty firework, which had burned a hole through their doormat.
