"Senseless and stupid" smashing of headstones in Auckland graveyard
The smashing of headstones by vandals at an Auckand chapel have been described as "senseless, stupid and unecessary". Police are investigating the damage at St Stephens Chapel, after receiving a report on Monday evening. Marble headstones have been broken into pieces, while sandstone graves were literally smashed to smithereens. The local community has been left shocked by the damage, which looks like it will cost roughly 35-thousand dollars to repair. Finn Blackwell and Marika Khabazi report.
