Police are investigating after 11 war graves were damaged in Belfast City Cemetery. 

Three were targeted on Friday and damage to a further nine war graves was reported today. 

Chief Inspector Christian Bradley said, "To damage any grave is appalling and I can assure the public that we will conduct a thorough investigation in a bid to bring those responsible before the courts but we need the community to help us.

“I would appeal to anyone with any information that could assist with our investigation to contact police in Woodbourne on the non-emergency number 101 quoting reference 592 07/10/19.

"Alternatively, information can also be provided to the independent charity Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111 which is 100% anonymous and gives people the power to speak up and stop crime.”
