He says there's a lot of time, effort and money that goes in to having these displays and it's unacceptable someone would aimlessly destroy it.

"The damage that was done last night is sort of a thing we wouldn't be used to. It's mindless vandalism. The crib is only up a couple of days and we're absolutely disgusted that this has happened. We have a fantastic Christmas lights committee there and they all put in huge efforts every year to try and get the town looking festive and people really do appreciate it,  but in the times we're in now, to have to pay for this mindless vandalism is going to be a strain on our resources"
