Officers investigating damage caused to a penguin which is part of the Worcester waddle are appealing for information.

The damage was caused around 1am on Tuesday morning (20 August) outside Worcester sewage works on Bromwich Parade

To assist with enquiries officers have released CCTV footage of the damage which shows someone push the penguin of its stand before stamping on it. A second person then comes into view and the two make off in the direction of Bromwich Parade.

Sergeant Sam Mott said: “I appreciate the footage does not give a clear image of the two suspects, but I ask that anyone comes forward with any information if they recognise their clothing or mannerisms; or if they saw two people in the area heading towards Bromwich Parade at the time of the incident.

“The footage shows one suspect filming the damage being caused and perhaps you have seen this footage being shared somewhere. This incident has brought great upset to so many people in our community, any information you have may help us find those responsible”.
