Vandals have targeted a Lowland League football club in Fife after driving a road roller over the pitch.
CCTV from Cowdenbeath’s Central Park shows three people break into the stadium riding the construction vehicle at around 9pm on Wednesday evening.
The roller then proceeded to be driven onto the pitch.
After the vehicle moves onto the grass, the driver holds his arm in the air whilst one individual jumps off. A phone appears to be handed to the person who seems to film the incident.
The vehicle drives off screen where Cowdenbeath say it collided with a building, causing significant damage.
The incident has been reported to Police Scotland.
The Lowland League side said: “Cowdenbeath FC regrets to report that our stadium was the target of an act of vandalism on the evening of Wednesday, March 5.
“At approximately 9pm, intruders unlawfully entered the ground and proceeded to start and drive a road roller onto the pitch, causing significant damage before colliding with a building.
“Those responsible filmed the incident, and this footage is likely to be shared.
“The Club is currently reviewing CCTV footage to assist in identifying those involved. We urge anyone with information regarding the individuals responsible to come forward by contacting either the Club or
