MANCHESTER, England (AP) – Manchester United on Tuesday condemned what the club called an “unwarranted attack” by vandals on the home of its executive vice chairman, Ed Woodward.

Footage posted on social media late Tuesday showed red flares being thrown over the gates of Woodward’s property. A message at the bottom of the video read: “Ed Woodward's gonna die.”

United said it had been made aware of the incident "outside the home of one of our employees," adding that the “football world will unite behind us” as the club works with police to identify the vandals.
