He said: "We parked in the disabled bay and as my wife went to go into Asda, I started looking around my car to see if it needed cleaning.

"It was then that I started to hear stones banging on my car so I turned around and saw seven youths.

"I asked them why they were throwing the stones and asked them to stop, telling them that I had a disabled person with me.

"They just got more aggressive and threw more and more stones.

"I said to my wife 'get in the car' and tried to drive out of the car park but they started hurling bricks and managed to smash and crack the windows."
