Police are investigating damage done to the Bluff police station last night.

Eight windows were smashed between 5pm and 8pm but the station was not entered.

No damage was evident to the Barrow Street building late this morning.

Invercargill police inspector Mike Bowman says he is "disappointed" people had chosen to attack the building.

Police would like to hear from anyone who might have seen anything suspicious around the station on Tuesday evening.
