A pair of Shropshire, UK speed cameras were attacked yesterday. The first camera in Wellington was set on fire with gasoline, marking the third attack on the camera in the past two years. The second camera in Ketley was splashed with red paint. Two years ago the same camera had been cut in half by an industrial saw. Police are investigating.

Vicki Bristow, for the Safety Camera Partnership which is responsible for the cameras, said officers were on the scene this morning assessing the extent of the damage.
