Police were today hunting thugs who vandalised 10 graves in the grounds of a Catholic Church in Co Down.
Three tombstones were smashed and another seven plots were vandalised in the attack at St Patrick's Parish Church, near Scarva.
Officers have appealed to anyone who noticed anything suspicious in the Mullaghglass Road area last night to contact them.
The incident comes just days after Catholic graves were damaged at a church on the outskirts of Belfast.
