Forums Forums Local News Vandalism at Hillsborough memorial

Trouble is, these days, people are afraid to interfere in case they get knifed. I'm afraid that if I heard anything, I wouldn't go out. I'd call 999.

i would have to go out and give the Grrrs a good kickin.

i've gone all cold first with shock and then with rage, from looking at the pictures and reading of the damage they have caused! totally sick! i hope someone gets their hands on them before the police do and knock ten kinds C**p outta the ... bags!!! total devastating for the families and friends of those who lost their lives

people are to frightened to intervene these days,i suppose someone did call the police....but how long does it take them to get there? useally when the b******s have gone!!why not have the police on foot....i remember when they used to walk the streets and check shops were locked up...well i am going back some years!

A 16-YEAR-OLD boy has been arrested in connection with the criminal damage at the Hillsborough Memorial, Port Sunlight, Wirral.

The youth, who was arrested yesterday afternoon, is currently assisting officers with their investigation.

Residents of the village were left horrified as an estimated tens of thousands of pounds worth of damage was done when the stonework around the memorial garden was loosened and knocked down in the early hours of last Sunday morning.

Anyone with information can contact Birkenhead CID on 0151 777 2263, any police officer or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.

Excellent News!

excellent

Yes but all he'll get is a fine, a slapped wrist and told not to do it again.
I'd rather meet him with, other fellow Hillsborough survivors, and meter out our own justice, he wouldn't do anything like that again.

That's good news that he has been caught but it's probably true what Beaty59 says that he'll most likely get off with a slapped wrist.

Two more arrested in connection with damage to Hillsborough Memorial in Port Sunlight

TWO more arrests have been made in relation to damage to the Hillsborough Memorial in Port Sunlight which shocked a community on Sunday.

A 16-year-old boy and a 13-year-old boy have been arrested on suspicion of causing criminal damage.

Another 16-year-old boy was arrested yesterday (Thursday) in connection with the same incident.

All three have since been released on police bail pending further enquiries.

Police had been called in the early hours of Sunday following reports that damage had been caused to a wall behind the memorial. Officers do not believe the vandalism was football-related or a targeted attack against the memorial and its connections to the Hillsborough tragedy.

Thanks for putting the video up - what a mess!

I know the report said something was reported in the early hours Sunday morning, but it looks like there are houses right next to the memorial.

You would imagine that someone must have heard the noise and phoned the police before the little bas***** managed to do all that damage! If the police did take their time in getting there (as someone suggested), I couldn't have stopped phoning the police, if it was me witnessing it -

Absolute disgrace.

nice one wheels

this is ia sign, we should get rid of our dead in a different way.........

total utter disgrace im sometimes ashamed to say i live on the wirral but i do think the culprets should be paraded through port sunlight village and let the residents throw stones and bricks at them and hail abuse like they did years and years ago.

and wot a great video wheels thanks for sharin.
