Fresh footage has dropped of the brick being shockingly hurled at Aston Villa's coach from the weekend.
Lancashire Police have appealed for help after the Aston Villa team bus was attacked by a group of individuals on Sunday.
Villa had travelled to Lancashire for their Premier League fixture with Burnley – and Unai Emery's men moved up to seventh with an emphatic 3-1 win.
However, on the way back to the Midlands, their bus was attacked when an individual launched a brick as it entered the M65. Police have now released CCTV footage as they appeal for help.

Supt Melita Worswick, of Lancashire Police, said: "We have now released CCTV footage from the coach and are asking anybody who recognises the two men on the left to get in touch.
"We appreciate the footage of them is quite grainy, but one is wearing distinctive clothing and this may help somebody recognise them.
“The area was busy when the incident occurred, with bank holiday traffic and people leaving the area following the football match between Burnley and Aston Villa.
"We believe there will be people out there who have not yet spoken to us, who either saw who was responsible or has dashcam showing the men more clearly. Whatever information you have please get in touch."
Lancashire Police also added: "This incident could have been so much worse and it is nothing but good luck that nobody was injured.
"The coach driver could have been injured by the broken glass, causing him to swerve into another vehicle, or another vehicle could have been hit by the brick. There could have been serious injuries or even fatalities. For this reason, we are taking this incident extremely seriously."
An individual was arrested in relation to the incident. But they have since been released with no further action – after it was found they were not involved.
