Michael Le Vell's car vandalised

Michael le Vell, who plys Kevin Webster in Coronation Street, had his car windscreen smashed - and told friends he is petrified by the campaign of abuse which started shortly after he was cleared on child-sex charges, says today's Sunday Mirror.

The Mirror says that Michael called the police after receiving a string of death threats and that he has also told friends he is worried that people have been following him near his home.

A spokesman for Greater Manchester police said last night: “We were called to a report of damage to a motor vehicle in the Hale area of Manchester at 5pm yesterday. Enquiries are ongoing.”
