Leeds Sports Facilities Targeted: LS-TEN Skatepark and City Bloc Climbing Centre Burgled

Two popular community sports venues in Leeds, West Yorkshire, were targeted by burglars in a series of break-ins that have impacted local youth and sports enthusiasts. Both the LS-TEN skatepark and the City Bloc climbing centre reported unauthorized entry and theft of equipment and cash.

LS-TEN, a well-known charity-run indoor skatepark, and City Bloc, a prominent bouldering and climbing gym, are located close to each other and serve as key recreational spaces in the South Leeds community. The break-ins have caused disruption to their operations and forced them to spend limited resources on repairing damage and upgrading security systems.

The community has rallied around both venues, offering support to help them recover. West Yorkshire Police are currently investigating whether the two incidents are linked and have asked anyone with information or dashcam footage from the area to come forward.
