Police are hunting a vandal who slashed the tyres on more than 60 cars in 10 streets in Wyndham Vale.
The cars were parked in Tilbrook Avenue, Brimpton Grove, Aldridge Road, Pembury Way, Ribblesdale Avenue, Mundara Drive, Burchill Way, Barrus Grove, Barnsbury Road and Amesbury Avenue when their tyres were slashed on Saturday night.
Police say that some of the cars had all four tyres slashed, while others had only two tyres targeted.
Police have CCTV footage of the attacks from numerous security cameras in the area. They show a man on a mountain bike using a tool to slash the tyres as he rode past the cars.
It is believed one man is responsible for all the damage, which police say will cost thousands of dollars to repair.
They believe the incident was pre- planned, given the large area covered by the vandal.
Detective Senior Constable Adam Sharp said police were still trying to establish the full extent of the damage.
“It’s quite a large area and it’s possible someone may know who’s responsible,” he said.
“We’d like to hear from anyone who saw any suspicious activity in the Wyndham Vale area between midnight [Saturday] and 8am [Sunday].”
Information to Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.
