Vile vandals wrecked a poppy memorial garden in Stevenston this week.

Poppy placards were ripped down from a memorial to the town’s service veterans on Shore Road some time over Monday night.

Bins were also seen being tipped over towards the nearby community centre with the damage discovered on Tuesday morning. 

A Police Scotland spokesperson said the incident had yet to be reported to authorities when the Ardrossan & Saltcoats Herald got in touch.
