@HebrideanHecate@polarisera@Gelatinousrube Druid rituals are very extreme, can involve very heinous crimes. For e.g., the West Memphis 3 killings were likely part of a Druid ritual.
A 16-year-old boy has been arrested after the centuries-old Sycamore Gap tree that stood next to Hadrian’s Wall was “deliberately felled” overnight.
The tree, which stood 36 metres tall and sat in a large dip in Northumberland National Park, was one of the most photographed in the country. It was also known as the Robin Hood Tree after featuring in the 1991 film Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves, starring Kevin Costner.
It had been cleanly sawed at the base of the trunk, with white spray paint left there. Its crown was left on the other side of the Roman wall. Police tape was erected this morning and officers could be seen on site.
This afternoon, Northumbria police said they had arrested a 16-year-old boy in connection with the incident. He remains in police custody.
