A marble poppy erected to commemorate fallen soldiers at Royal Wootton Bassett has collapsed - three weeks before Remembrance Day.
Police were called after the sculpture, installed in 2015, was found badly damaged this morning - and there were fears it had been vandalised.
CCTV footage shows the 10ft wide memorial - which weighs 4.5 tonnes - collapse under its own weight after the bottom petal snapped overnight.
