Family shocked after doorbell camera films man destroying 9-year-old’s snowman


A family was confused after seeing in their doorbell camera footage a jump out of his car before running into their garden to kick a snowman built by a nine-year-old girl. Before checking the footage, the mother and father from Dudley presumed the snowman had fallen over on its own.

They were left shocked by the man’s “weird” behaviour as they saw the man launch a giant kick to the snowman, which sent it toppling to the ground.

The family, who asked not to be named, has said the young girl who built the snowman is devastated.

The mother said the man’s actions were “mean and horrible” and has said she wishes to find out the culprit.

The father told Black Country Live that the bizarre actions were unbelievable and fumed about the incident.

He said: “The wife had a doorbell alert, then we saw what had happened.

“We couldn’t believe it.

“It is weird that it annoyed him so much he had to stop and pull over.

“I know it’s only a snowman but to come up onto someone’s garden, it’s not on.”

He added: “It had started to lean over, the kids were looking forward to it melting.”

The remains of the once-tall snowman remain in their front garden in a sad pile.

This comes as temperatures are expected to plummet again on Tuesday morning.

The Met Office has issued yellow weather warnings for snow and ice from 5pm on Monday until 10am Tuesday morning.

Commuters have been warned of a fresh layer of ice as the wintry conditions make a comeback, however, it is not certain if Dudley will receive more snowfall.
