A building was damaged and money stolen from a tip jar after an ice cream kiosk in Ryde was broken into on Sunday night.
Vandals broke into the kiosk, on the Esplanade next to Eastern Gardens, and took the tip jar that sits behind the counter containing around £30.
The owner headed down on Monday morning ahead of another very busy day to see the damage to the premises.
It is believed that those involved may have been young teenagers – forcing entry to the kiosk with a claw hammer.
Police were called and have been to the scene to conduct inquiries, bagging some evidence of the break-in to be sent for forensic analysis.


























































































Where are the police and PCSOs ?, been Newport w/end and most of today very busy round town with fake (3 with similar bits of cardboard and actually asking people for money, especially the older folks) homeless from mainland and probably some shop lifters,but no police or PCSOs walking around – why ?. Before COVID you would see them wandering around our towns all the time,a couple even out on bikes! We are paying more than ever through council tax but greatly reduced service.
Ask Theresa May..
Very true.
Personally I did not want to pay extra council tax for
Police services,which seem to be Zero thesedays.
My guess is they are working from Home.
Why are these little shi*s doing this. They are just getting worse. No respect for other people and their property. Need a good dose of ‘being taught the word respect’…….!!!!
Why are these little shi*s doing this? Obviously they were just after the lolly.
More scumbags dragged up by scumbags that are allowed to breed, no discipline in the home, no discipline at school, and a Woke society that continues to allow the state to drag kids up….
Lets check out some of the reported crime, shall we
Some kids break into an ice-cream kiosk and pinch some money and you are all over it.
Some 55 year old stabs a woman and your only comment is to complain about someone’s grammar.
Some guy smashes some car windscreens and you are all over that, too.
Dirty old convicted child rapist charged with more child sex offences, not a peep from you,
Mentally disturbed woman waving a BB gun around and you’re all over that, too.
Is there any particular reason why young petty criminals receive so much ire from you while older violent criminals and repeat child sex offenders don’t?
Wait until the massive coming recession occurs. This is the good times
Mass unemployment and crime and breeding the only way for the masses to still live in the style they are accustomed to
Jails already at breaking point and Police reluctance to attend anything but the worst cases already
Recession?
We are heading for a 1930s style depression.

Groups of feral youths plague the Esplanade area at night, why can’t the police use the powers of dispersal orders to get rid of them, oh i forgot that would mean them having to actually be present and doing the job we are paying them for.
They are probably scared of them.
