Trainers hanging from power lines in Whitstable
Trainers hanging from power lines in Whitstable

Serial shoe-flingers have left three pairs of trainers hanging from overhead lines in Whitstable.

Missing footwear tied together by the shoelaces was snapped in Northwood Road, Millstrood Road and Canterbury Road.

Emily Turner, from the town, spotted the shoes and alerted KentOnline on her Twitter site @emilyaturner.

She said: "Whitstable is about to get 75,000 plus visitors coming to July's Oyster Festival and the town should look its best.

"Pairs of old trainers hanging from telephone wires on some of the main routes into town give the wrong impression."

It is not known who the culprits are – but police hope to bring them to heel.
