Police are investigating after a pig's head was left on public view in an alleyway in Barton Hill over the weekend. Avon and Somerset Police received reports the head had been found at 11.09am yesterday (November 6).
Officers attended and found the head close to where it had been originally left in the alleyway, which is off Avonvale Road, between the junctions with Queen Ann Road and Beam Street. The force are now appealing for witnesses as they investigate a hate crime.
A tweet from Barton Hill Activity Club said yesterday: "Barton Hill residents woke up 2 this yesterday morning, it's a very shocking to see this kind of hate crime and racism in 2022. The residents in Eccleston House keep calling me asking if this is related to the fire that happened last month?"
