The photo above shows all that remains of TWO street lights damaged by children a few nights ago.
A long stick was used to push the plastic outer globes onto the bulbs causing the plastic globes to ignite. It is the first time I have seen any of these lights catch fire before, yet we had two ignite within the space of 1 hour.
Not only is it very dangerous to the children involved, but potentially disastrous to the park, the dripping burning plastic took some considerable time to extinguish.
At the moment I am not able to say how much it will cost to replace the fittings and have them re-wired.
