Two people have been arrested amid the police's investigation into criminal damage against speed cameras in Cornwall. The men, in their 30s, have been taken into custody following the bouts of vandalism across the county. One from the Falmouth area and another from the Porthleven area have been arrested on suspicion of criminal damage and are currently in police custody.
