A HUNT is on for a prankster who has been using a universal TV remote control to change the channels on other people's TVs.
The mischievous culprit has targeted homes in Pockeridge and Potley, Corsham.
Two complaints have been made to police in recent months and officers are appealing for information.
Sgt Mel Rolph, from Corsham police, said: "We have been told that somebody has bought a television remote control and is standing outside people's homes changing the channels.
"It is a worry because if somebody is watching television and their channels start changing, they might think it has broken.
"If they went out and bought a new television then it becomes a real problem.
"If my TV started playing up I would say let's just get a new one."
