“It’s very disappointing to see any sort vandalism whether here or elsewhere it’s senseless and completely unnecessary,” said Father Hand.

“I understand the bus shelter adjacent to the church, which has been targeted before, also had windows and shutters smashed the same evening.”

Police in Glenrothes have confirmed a incident has been reported and have called upon anyone with information to contact them on 101 or via Crimestoppers on 0800 555111.
