Angry locals have blasted yobs who scaled a West Country church to ring its bells at 1am. The noise woke the Cornish village after two men climbed scaffolding in the early hours.
The incident took place at St Columb Minor Church near Newquay on Monday (July 3) morning. The same church had been the victim of acts of vandalism lately with organ electrics ripped out and cleaning fluid thrown around in previous incidents, reports Cornwall Live.
Reverend Chris McQuillen-Wright told the BBC: "It is the second-tallest bell tower in Cornwall. From the outside, at the very top, we've never been bothered to lock it.
