TWO teenagers arrested after a video surfaced of a CCTV pole being cut down - less than 12 hours after it was put up - have been released without charge.

It happened back in March, on Broadstone Way, Holme Wood

In the video, which was widely shared on social media, a male can be seen using a power tool to cut around the metal post.
