A family member of the father that was found dead in Belgium has had her car vandalised.

Leanne Pitt, the aunt of Jason Gapper, has been supporting her family since her nephew was found dead in Belgium last week.

However, after fighting to help bring Jason's body home her car has also been seriously vandalised.

Leanne was woken up by police in the early hours of the morning on Saturday, February 16.

She was then informed that her car had been attacked during the night outside her house in Shirehampton.

On Facebook, Leanne said: "This week I have identified my nephew, I'm grieving and can't sleep and now this."

The post received dozens of messages of support as well as a number of shares. Police are continuing their investigations.

It comes as the family continue their fundraising to bring Jason's body home.
