Christmas trees used to mark the festive period in a busy Sheffield city centre dining quarter have been vandalised.

The damage has been caused to trees in Leopold Square, which is home to venues including Zizzi, Pho and The Botanist.

A Star reader claimed all six trees had been vandalised. They continued by saying they would have liked to see the Christmas trees decorated to a higher standard.

“Why not light them up ? Putting six trees with electric cables all over is a poor attempt,” they said.

Photographs appear to show the Christmas trees were ripped from base units, before being knocked to the floor.
