Cherry trees that were planted in a park in Lancaster by school children have been vandalised.
Two trees were damaged and four guards protecting them were stolen from Ryelands Park overnight on Sunday into Monday.
Branches were snapped off two trees and four cages from around the trunks were taken from four of the trees, which were planted by local volunteers and children from Ryelands Primary School to enhance the environment and make the park a more diverse and vibrant place to be.
The incident last night has been reported to police.
If anyone has information please contact Lancashire Police on 101, quoting log number 806.
