Mum slams ‘evil’ behaviour at playground as slide ‘deliberately’ tampered with
A mum was left fuming after spotting "disgusting" and "evil" behaviour at a playground that could have hurt a child.
Rebekah Jamieson was at Jubilee Park in Huyton, Merseyside after school one day when her daughter was stopped in her tracks at the top of the slide, Liverpool Echo reports.
Jamieson said her daughter shouted: "What's this?" and pointed to what looked like a sticky liquid running down the slide and shattered glass at the bottom, which she said looked like they'd been placed there deliberately.

She told the Echo: "I had sunglasses on and she was walking ahead of me but I could see streaks down the slide. It was poured on.
"As she was already on the stairs I told her to wait a minute in case it was slippery, I had no gloves or wipes with me, but as she got to the top she shouted: 'What's this?'
"I could see there was broken glass all down the bottom, if she'd have come down she'd have ripped herself to bits."
Jamieson tried to remove the glass with her shoe before taking her daughter home and contacting the council about the issue.
The furious mum then took to social media to warn other parents about the danger.

She added: "I contacted the council on every possible platform and I went on night shift but I had an email from them saying it has been shared to the relevant teams and actioned immediately, it was pretty much straight away and I was happy with that.
"I wanted to protect as many as possible, it's disgusting. There's times she's gone flying down that slide without giving it a second thought.
"If it was an accident fair enough but clearly someone has poured that down and smashed a bottle on a child's slide in a children's park. That's not just naughty, it's evil."
Jamieson added that if it was children who laid the broken glass, their parents should be teaching them to be "mindful of others" and consider the consequences of their "silly five-minute behaviour" before playing similar pranks in future.
"I've worked in emergency care and I've seen what happens when wounds get infected and people are scarred for life," she added. "It's not great, and the detrimental effect that can have on someone's health.
"My daughter could easily have slid down and been cut and we'd have been in hospital and had stitches. But in 10 years' time and she's got to wear a swimming costume and her legs are ripped to bits, would it affect her confidence? They don't think, they act."
