Christmas in Pontypridd has taken an unexpected turn, leaving the town talking after a daring individual climbed their festive tree and damaged its star! 🎄✨
Captured on social media by local Ellie Roxanne Johnson, the video shows somebody scaling the massive tree, later attempting to remove the star. Sadly, the stunt caused too much damage and the town council has confirmed the star won’t be making a comeback this year. It’s a real blow to the festive cheer!
With folks firing up social media with their thoughts, one person exclaimed, “It only happens in Ponty!” while another lamented, “What the hell is wrong with people, why can’t they leave things alone?” It’s safe to say the sentiment is shared—what would possess someone to do this?
In response to the uproar, South Wales Police were promptly involved and have spoken to a gentleman connected to the episode. No arrests were made, but it’s hoped their words of advice hit home.
Pontypridd Town Council has expressed their disappointment and are seeking any more information about the incident. If you know anything, do get in touch with the police. Let’s hope for a brighter holiday season, where such acts don’t dim our Christmas sparkle! 🎅✨
Keep your festive spirit alive, Ponty! 😊
