Whitchurch’s Civic Centre has been targeted again by thieves.
Three hooded males, apparently wearing white masks, were seen using ladders to try to break into the building on High Street at around 1.30am last Wednesday.
They ripped lead from the building, which was later found in a wheeled bin.
It follows a similar incident at the centre at around 2.30am on Friday, June 2, when two males were seen attempting to break into the building.
Meanwhile, lead sheeting was stolen from above windows of a house fronting on to Watergate Street between 9pm on Monday, June 25, and 3am the following morning.
