Rabbits could be to blame for Kirkcaldy cemetery vandalism

Local wildlife may be to blame for a trail of destruction at a Kirkcaldy graveyard.

One bereaved local mother described damage to her baby’s grave at Hayfield Cemetery as disgusting.

Other upset relatives have reported incidents of flowers being cut, vases upturned and ornaments stolen or disturbed.

Police Scotland confirmed it was investigating the matter.

But so far the most likely suspects are deer and rabbits according to Fife Council’s bereavement services.
