A seven-year-old daughter was awoken by men outside her bedroom window filming themselves pooing and weeing on top of a family's new car.

West Country parents, Kirk and Hannah Petrakis, assumed their daughter was having a nightmare as they couldn't see anything when they looked out of the window.

However, the next morning, they were shocked to find a pile of human excrement on their brand new car roof, parked in Upton Road, Torquay, Devon.

While looking back at the CCTV, they found footage showing two men laughing as one of them climbs on the car, crouches to defecate and then stands up to take a pee.

Meanwhile his friend films and photographs the whole incident on his mobile phone at just after 5am on Sunday, September 1, before going down the road and climbing on to another car.

Mr Petrakis installed CCTV after a string of random acts of violence in the road earlier this year, reports Devon Live.

He said: "It is disgusting. I'm horrified and so frustrated by the way things keep getting worse and worse.

"My poor little daughters are too scared to sleep in their bedroom now."

The outraged dad, of K&H Carriages, added they only bought the Honda Jazz car a month ago.

He explained: "We heard a noise out in the street and then we thought my seven-year-old daughter was having a nightmare at first.

"She said somebody was standing on the roof outside her bedroom and we thought she meant the flat roof - we looked out and couldn't see anything.

"Then in the morning we found this huge human poo on the roof of our car - which was parked right outside the kids' bedroom window.

"My wife cleaned it off and then I played the CCTV back and you can see what they did clearly.

"He stands up and pees on the car as well. He did everything! I was just speechless."

Mr Petrakis wants the culprits to say sorry.

He said: "We have given the footage to the police. I want an apology. I want them to be named.

"I want them to pay for the work to get our new car fixed.

"I have been to several car bod repair places today to see if I can get it fixed without having to make an insurance claim - but they all say the roof will cost about £2,000.

"But the worst thing is I can't stop how this has upset my kids. We didn't tell the younger one who is only six, but they talk to each other.

"The world is changing - they are grown men and they are laughing and filming the whole thing. I want the police to have tougher powers."

Devon and Cornwall Police are investigating and have been contacted for a comment.
