WHAT HAPPENED?
Croatian agent Andy Bara, whose company Niagara Sports agency manages European stars like Dani Olmo and Alvaro Morata, has opened up on explosives being thrown into his garden at his home in Zagreb. The incident happened on Tuesday morning when an unknown person threw a firecracker into the garden and immediately disappeared. Bara also clarified that his family is safe, although his dog was injured in the attack.

WHAT HAS BEEN SAID
Speaking to Jutarnji List, who first released the video of the incident, Bara said: "It was not a bomb. And if it had been a bomb, as they say, half the house would probably have disappeared. My family and I are fine and there is no material damage except for the burnt grass where the firecracker fell.
"It woke my wife, who came down to see what was happening, but not me or the children. If the dog had not been injured, we would not have called the police."
THE BIGGER PICTURE
Zagreb police have opened an investigation to trace the unknown entity who threw the explosives. A police officer was quoted saying: "The police left after the investigation on the scene. The security guard next to the house had not noticed anyone. Ten days ago, a similar device had been thrown at a neighbor's house."
