Image caption,Buxton Market CIC co-chair Tim Ball said: "Initially we thought it might just be high jinks on New Year's Eve but, on closer inspection, we believe our vehicles were deliberately targeted.

"We are a small community-run company which relies heavily on a small but dedicated team of volunteers and paid workers."Without the float and trailers we cannot move the market stalls."Police said the trailers had been stored overnight at the old cattle market "This is our seventh year running the market and we have never been attacked like this before," he added.Mr Ball said the market vehicles had also been targeted on 8 December, the night before the Christmas market, when tarpaulin covers and ropes were damaged.A few days later, a wheel on the float had been punctured, he said.
