VANDALS have attacked Kingsteignton's popular skate ramp.

PCSO Vanessa Pike, who came up with the idea of installing a ramp and was the driving force behind raising the £53,000 cost, was devastated after discovering the damage on Monday.

Holes have been punched in the sides of the ramp in Clifford Park and pieces of wood have been torn off.

It is believed the damage may have been caused at the weekend.

PCSO Pike said: 'It is heartbreaking.

'It took a lot of hard work and three years to raise the money and a lot of people were involved in making this come to fruition.
