Vandals have destroyed flowers worth thousands of pounds that were meant to be on display for the Queen's Platinum Jubilee.
Displays costing up to £10,000 were ripped to shreds in Sloane Street, Chelsea, by a group of people this morning.
A window cleaner in the area said people had ruined the displays and left a scene of destruction.
He said: 'Members of the public destroyed it. They were like animals. They just destroyed everything. It was like a riot.'

Serena Crawford, 66, a designer from South Africa, saw the flowers after they were destroyed. She told MailOnline it was 'extremely unpleasant and devastating' and questioned why anyone would want to steal the flowers from shopkeepers who just wanted to bring a smile to people's faces during the Jubilee
