SAFFRON Walden's skatepark has been repeatedly targeted by vandals.

The latest incidents took place in the evenings of Wednesday, April 22 and Thursday, April 23.

Vandals left broken glass bottles, litter, a push bike and helmet across the skate park paths and within the bowls.

Saffron Walden Town Council's operations team tidied the park and removed the rubbish on both occasions.

A town council spokesperson said: "The skatepark is a treasured facility and very well used and it is a shame a few spoil it for those that love to skate and play at the park.

"It is disappointing that Saffron Walden Town Council has had to resolve issues of vandalism at the Skate Park on several occasions over the last few weeks."
