🎄✨ Christmas Mischief in Pontypridd! ✨🎄
In an unforgettable festive incident, a man attempted to swipe the star right off Pontypridd’s beloved Christmas tree just two days before the holiday! Captured on video, the sky-high shenanigans showed him climbing to the tree’s top and trying to nab its crowning ornament. Unfortunately, the attempted swipe ended up damaging the tree, and the star couldn’t be placed back.
After a police investigation, the festive prankster has been handed a hefty bill of over £1,300! South Wales Police confirmed the man was shown the CCTV footage and issued an adult conditional caution. The locals weren’t shy in expressing their disappointment, with many asking what possesses someone to tamper with such a cherished decoration. One person wryly commented, “It only happens in Ponty.”
Whether you’re shaking your head or chuckling at the audacity, it’s a reminder of how one night of mischief can lead to more than just a slap on the wrist! Stay tuned for more local updates, and let’s hope for a tree-topper next year that stays put! 🎅🔔
