Officials in Woodstock are out with a warning after making a disturbing discovery at Southside Park for the second time this summer.
During a recent routine check of the playground, parks staff discovered several thumbtacks and sewing needles spread amongst the playground equipment.
This comes after police were called earlier this month to investigate the spread of nails throughout the cricket pitch and nearby playing area at the park.
