A group of youths vandalized food donations meant for vulnerable people in Accrington, shocking the community and prompting police action
Accrington: You won’t believe what happened at the Tesco store! A bunch of youths went wild and destroyed food that was meant for people in need. It’s just shocking.
This all went down on a Wednesday evening. The police got called in after the gang started throwing food from the donation section all over the floor. Can you imagine? Such a waste!
The police were pretty upset about it, calling the behavior disgraceful. They said it showed total disrespect for the vulnerable folks in Accrington and the kind-hearted people who donated the food.
They think some of the girls involved might be from the nearby Clayton-le-Moors area. The police are trying to figure out who they are so they can handle the situation properly.
It’s not just this incident, either. There’s been a rise in antisocial behavior in Hyndburn lately, with reports of assaults and damage in shops. It’s really concerning.
Police are urging parents to step up and keep an eye on their kids. They want parents to check in and make sure their children aren’t part of this trouble. It’s a community effort, after all!
In a statement, the police mentioned they’ve been responding to various incidents lately. They’re working with other agencies to tackle this ongoing issue and keep the community safe.
It’s just sad to see such a lack of respect for those in need. Let’s hope this gets sorted out soon!
