“This kind of thing needs to be stopped before it gets worse,” commented another.
One man described the incident as a potential “nightmare” scenario.
“A few of these needles were found in the Bligh’s Lane area a few weeks ago in peoples’ gardens - this sort of thing must be stopped before a child gets pricked with one of these dirty needles - everyone’s nightmare,” he said on Facebook.
