IT'S a bit of a long shot, but police hope you can help them solve a "disgusting" crime that endangered the health of a group of pre-school children.

Officers want to identify two offenders who climbed over a wall and got into the enclosed garden at Kiddi Caru Day Nursery, in Blackbrook Park Avenue, Taunton.

An Avon and Somerset Police spokesman said: "Once inside the enclosed gardens, the offenders have urinated in the children’s sandpits which resulted in the sand and some toys having to be destroyed.

"This is a disgusting crime which exposed the young children of the nursery to potential infections as well as causing damage to the play area."

Four other offenders entered the same nursery garden four days later - April 9 - and caused damage to a metal container used to gain entry to the enclosed gardens.

Police are keen to speak to a number of people caught on CCTV who they think could help them with their inquiries - if you recognise any of them from these grainy photos, call Crimestoppers on 0800-555111.
