Vandals trash children's graves and steal toys

Children's graves have been trashed at a Maidenhead cemetery.

Toy tractors and other children's playthings were stolen and plants and headstones were vandalised at Braywick Cemetery sometime between Sunday and Wednesday.

There were two reports of graves being targeted but a police spokesman said others may also have been wrecked.

Spokesman Rebecca Webber said: "They were targeted by vandals who threw items on the grave around the cemetery and damaged them."

Call police with information on 101 or Crimestoppers Anonymous on 0800555 111.
