Tyres slashed near Horniman Gardens

[malumbu]

There is a spate of tyre slashings on at least two roads.  This has been going on for a number of weeks.  Obviously this is being reported to the police.

It's not specific types of cars ie high end/prestige, but old and new alike.  It's malicious.  

Unless you have helpful things to say  please don't post,  By all means spare a quiet thought for those affected.  If there are are similar reports over the border in Southwark that woujld be useful, in order to push for coordination between the boroughs.  Please don't use this thread to bash the police, local authorities, or society as a whole.

an inevitable consequence of the irrational, hate-filled war on motorists, I'm afraid.

So, you just ignored the “unless you have useful things to say please don’t post” bit?

Speculating on the motivations for these crimes is helpful.

Do these cars belong to residents in these roads?

Has anybody caught anything useful on cameras? Is it happening overnight?

So are we only to post on this thread  if we are aware of similar spates of  tyre slashing in Southwark?

Surely that would have been reported to the police already?

Malumbu, are you implying that the police in adjacent boroughs don't talk to each other already, if it is necessary to "push for coordination between the boroughs"?

Sorry if I have completely misunderstood, but I'm not sure what the point of your post is, except to make people aware that someone or some people is/are going around slashing car tyres.

Unfortunately there is very little that car owners can do to protect their cars against this kind of vandalism, so far as I am aware, unless they have a garage and don't need to park their car on a road.
