Police investigate severed pig heads found in Northern Ireland park

Severed pig heads were found in Kilbroney Park in Rostrevor, County Down, on Halloween morning.

The display, which reportedly included a head impaled on a stake, has since been removed.

Northern Ireland police are investigating and say they are keeping an open mind about why it happened.

The park is popular with walkers and families, and includes trails, a playground, tennis courts and a café.

The display shocked local residents, with councillor Mark Gibbons calling it disturbing and disgusting.

Police have asked anyone with information or who saw suspicious activity in the area to contact them.

Enquiries are continuing to establish what happened, and police are considering all possible lines of investigation.
