Angry locals have targeted a barber shop linked to the TikTok ghoul who filmed police removing Nicola Bulley's body from a river. <br /><br />Hairdresser Curtis Arnold, 34, made almost £1,000 in royalties by posting footage of officers recovering the tragic mum-of-two from the River Wyre in Lancashire.<br /><br />Since being exposed, the controversial TikToker has faced an angry backlash from members of the public who have now targeted a business where he worked. <br /><br />Grade One Barbers, in Kidderminster, Worcs., was daubed in graffiti over the weekend with giant letters spelling out the word “N**CE!”.<br /><br />When the shop was contacted for comment, Mr Arnold answered and said he no longer worked there. <br /><br />He said: "It's not really fair on the owner. <br /><br />"The name of the shop is very well known. I've only been there a short time".<br /><br />Some of the graffiti had been removed by this afternoon (Thurs) but the barbers was empty. <br /><br />One local resident, who did not want to be named, said: "I noticed it there at the start of the week but to be honest I didn't know he worked there. <br /><br />"I knew he was local but somebody has obviously taken exception to his behaviour and took matters into their own hands to make a point.<br /><br />"You can't agree with what he did but it's not nice to see this, there's lots of families around her and they don't want to be seeing words like that."<br /><br />Mr Arnold runs the 'Curtis Media' account on TikTok, YouTube and Facebook and had been uploading videos on the missing person investigation in Lancashire.<br /><br />He had previously posted footage of "a possible burial site” while the Lancashire Police search was still underway.<br /><br />The content creator claims that subsequent media coverage about his Nicola Bulley video has had a "devastating impact" on his life.<br /><br />In a recent video on his channel he said: “I’ve been assaulted, I’ve had my workplace damaged, I’ve had my car damaged.<br /><br />"I’ve had people come to the house, I’ve had my personal address posted all over Facebook and shared. Safe to say I've learned my lesson."<br /><br />Mr Arnold has apologised and says he has anonymously donated "five times the amount" the video made in royalties to the family of Nicola Bulley.<br /><br />He admitted his video would have caused them distress and added: "It can't have been a nice thing for them to have seen and I'm sorry about that."
