Obscene graffiti has appeared along a stretch of a popular Nottinghamshire walking route. The graffiti, which appears to be anti-Palestinian, has been spotted along the Nottingham Canal Path near Cossall Road, running between Cossall and Trowell.
It has been reported to Broxtowe Borough Council and labelled as a "hate crime", appearing on signposts, gates and benches on a section of the route. One local residents says they, along with their friends, were "very disturbed" to discover the graffiti while out on a walk.
The resident, who wished to remain anonymous, told Nottinghamshire Live: "It is such a shame that people can ruin such a very nice area for people to enjoy a nice quiet country walk in the sun. Plus there has also been anti-social behaviour reported on this trail where youths on very loud motorbikes and quad bikes have been causing a very bad nuisance to the area as well."
