Man Arrested In Connection With Damage Caused To Defibrillator
A man has been arrested in connection with an act of vandalism in East Belfast.
It is understood that a defibrillator, installed outside Crymble and Sons Funeral Directors just over a week ago, was damaged in an incident on Sunday, 27 November.
In CCTV footage posted to Facebook by Crymble and Sons, a group of men are seen standing in front of the defibrillator before one of the men smashed the glass protecting the life saving equipment.
Crymble and Sons had paid for the machine to be installed outside their east Belfast premises but had to take if off the emergency network following the incident.
However, they have pledged to have the machine back in place and operational as soon as possible.
Posting to their Facebook, Crymble and Sons said that they had been informed by the police that a man has been arrested in connection with the incident.
They added: "I would like to thank everyone for their support please consider donating something to our new Justgiving page that will raise the profile of AED in East Belfast area hopefully raising enough to purchase these vital pieces of life saving equipment."
