Burnham
police arrest three youths after Marine Cove vandalism
Police
in Burnham have arrested three youths after damage was caused
to paving stones at Marine Cove, near to the town's Esplanade.
Earlier
this month, we reported
the damage in which paving slabs were pulled up and thrown into
a nearby ornamental pond and onto some benches.
After
extensive police enquiries by local beat manager PC Adrian Jones
and reviewing of CCTV footage from the area, police arrested two
14-year-old boys and one 15-year-old boy.
All
were arrested on suspicion of causing the criminal damage and
have been released on police bail pending further enquiries.
PS
Ian Kennett, based at Burnham Police Station, told Burnham-On-Sea.com:
"There has been extensive police enquiries into the damage,
which has been estimated at costing around £750."
"This
has included reviewing of CCTV footage and liaison with King Alfred
School, which has taken up a considerable amount of police time."
"The
three youths involved have been interviewed by police and given
bail until a date in July."
