It's vandalism. "I wanted to use it to do work with MIND, the mental health charity, and to do a charity collection outside on derby day, it's just so sad. People always talk of putting things in place to brighten up the area which this definitely did but then this happens, it's so frustrating."
"We'd had a lot of people walk past and take pictures while we were making it. It won't be possible to get it exactly how it was when we originally finished it but I'm doing the best I can.
