Residents have described their shock after a community skatepark was daubed with racist graffiti over the weekend.
Numerous racist slogans â including a swastika, âwhites only and references to George Floyd, the 46-year-old American whose death sparked the global Black Lives Matter movement last summer â were spray-painted on ramps at Eye Skate Park over the weekend.
Residents condemned the âhorrendousâ graffiti, which has forced the town council to close the skate park â just days after it was reopened following the easing of lockdown restrictions.
Residents and councillors have now covered up the ramps at the skatepark. (45927330)
