A memorial bench in Ely has been defaced just days before Remembrance Day.
The bench, at Cherry Hill Park on Broad Street, which was donated by the Royal British Legion, has been covered in red and white spray paint.
Cambridgeshire Police shared a picture of the bench, with a censored section covering an offensive word.
Officers said it is "really disappointing to see", as these benches "serve as lasting memorials, honouring veterans and reminding communities of the sacrifices made by service members."
