New 'street hubs' installed in Worthing that provide USB charging, free emergency calls and wi-fi have been vandalised.
A spokesperson for Worthing Borough Council said:
“We’re very disappointed about the vandalism of one of BT’s newly-installed street hubs in Montague Street.
“The hubs have been installed by BT as a high-tech replacement to a number of their phone boxes across the town centre, and offer charging and connection features to visitors. They also supply useful data, such as air quality figures, to the Council’s planning department.
“We won’t tolerate vandalism and we will continue working with Sussex Police to crack down on crime in the town.”
