A seaside arcade has been left damaged after a group of teens smashed up one of its machines.

The amusements in Great Yarmouth's Marine Parade are a must-visit for many people making a trip to the coast, but one has now been left damaged in the town's latest act of vandalism.

A group of teenagers entered the arcade just before 3.30pm on Friday, August 9.

The visit took a turn when the group were seen punching the glass of a penny machine.
