Sum of money and childrens' presents stolen from Edenderry Santa's grotto

A Santa's grotto located in Edenderry Shopping Centre fell victim to theft and vandalism last weekend when the grotto was “wrecked” and cash and presents for children were stolen.

Taking to social media to reveal the news, Derry Rovers AFC in Brians Park, Edenderry said: “The absolute devastation of arriving down to open our grotto before Santa’s arrival today. We will get it back together and make sure we are ready for the kids visit. This is going to cost us.”

The club is offering a reward for anyone who may have information on the recent incident.
