Police Investigate Filey Play Park Damage After Injury

Filey Police are currently investigating a potential criminal damage incident which resulted in a member of the public suffering a serious injury.

They are appealing to any member of the public who has used the play park in Glen Gardens, The Crescent, Filey in the past six weeks to come forward with information about damage to the equipment.

The injury occurred when the victim was using what is described as a bouncy metal seesaw which also spins and pivots depending on the desired use.

North Yorkshire Council are aware of the incident and have notified the HSE.

PC Walton is appealing for anyone who may have any information as to how the damage has occurred or if you have seen anyone acting suspiciously in the park over the last six weeks.

Filey Police say:

"This may sound like a long time, however, it is unknown as to when the damage has occurred.  

You can contact PC Walton by emailing Mark.Walton@northyorkshire.police.uk or by calling 101.

You can also provide information via the website https://orlo.uk/FBaoI or anonymously via Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.

Please quote reference number 12240125703."
