The peaceful village of Godstone has been plagued by the catapult fiends, who have been seen prowling the area at random times of the day to intimate residents and vandalise homes.
Villagers in rural Surrey have been left terrified by a gang of slingshot-wielding yobs who have smashed up windows, attacked a funeral and blinded wild animals, MailOnline can reveal.
One neighbour, who claimed that the yobs are from a former Traveller community, said the police have been handed the names of several youths spotted in the village, but had so far failed to do anything about it. Catapult attacks have plagued the village randomly since 2018 with perpetrators targeting houses and cars.
Furthermore, a local swan sanctuary worker said he saw swans and waterfowl with 'eyes exploded, throats cut, skulls fractured, wings damaged and broken legs' due to catapult attacks.
