Fatboy Slim’s café has been targeted by vandals.

The Big Beach Café in Hove was unable to open this morning due to thousands of pounds worth of damage being caused to the building.

The café, at Hove Lagoon, Kingsway, shared CCTV images of several youths with bikes.

Images shared on social media show one youngster holding what appeared to be part of a paving slab above his head and throwing it.

Further photographs show the extent of the damage with the café’s shutters warped and broken.

Broken glass could also be seen on the ground.

The café said in its post on Instagram: “Sorry we are unable to open our kitchen this morning as these three vile hooligans have caused ££££ of damage to our community business.

“Please share and get in touch with their details so we can prosecute them and make them pay for their actions.”

The Big Beach Café and Sussex Police were contacted for comment.

Internationally renowned DJ Fatboy Slim, real name Norman Cook, bought the cafe in 2013 from former model, businesswoman and animal rights activist Heather Mills.

The ex-wife of Beatles star Paul McCartney ran the vegan café V Bites for four years.
