From the BBC:
The Edinburgh home of former Royal Bank of Scotland boss Sir Fred Goodwin was attacked by vandals overnight.
Windows were smashed and a Mercedes S600 car parked in the driveway was vandalised.
There has been widespread public and political anger over a pension payout worth about £700,000 a year to the 50-year-old bank boss.
Sir Fred took early retirement from RBS last year after the bank needed a £20bn bailout from the government.
RBS made a record loss of £24bn last year.
It is not known if anyone was in the house at the time of the attack or who reported the vandalism.
A police car is guarding the entrance to Sir Fred’s home, in the Grange area of the city.
Three smashed ground-floor windows of the stone villa were clearly visible.
In the driveway, the rear window of a dark-coloured Mercedes saloon was smashed, as well as the nearside rear passenger window.
There were no obvious signs of activity inside the house.
A Lothian and Borders Police spokeswoman said they were called out at 0435 GMT.
She said: “Inquiries in relation to the incident are ongoing. We are appealing for witnesses.”
Run-of-the-mill hoodlums or displeased taxpayers? One to watch.
