Which of the following most accurately describes the problem?

TWO YOUTHS have been arrested on suspicion of attempted grievous bodily harm with intent to endanger life after throwing bricks from a bridge at vehicles travelling along the A14 at Milton.

Police were called at 4.55prn on 17 May after bricks had been thrown at the windows of two trucks, causing extensive damage; a third truck suffered slight damage to its windscreen.

None of the drivers involved suffered serious injury but casualty reduction officer PC Mick McCready says: "This is a criminal act with potentially catastrophic consequences if the lorries were to lose control.

"In this case the drivers were lucky to escape serious injury, but it could have been much worse and could have resulted in loss of life."
