Newport Road Vandalism

Walked out the house this morning to see the neighbour had a flat tyre, started to text him to let him know and then saw a van with two tyres flat further down the road... can only assume that some tool has stabbed them...

PCSO knocks on the door tonight to ask if we have had any trouble. Apparently, 64 vehicles were done last night up Newport rd and down Westway- some with more than one tyre.

Plod had an idea who the culprits may be and have picked a group up tonight- fantastic !! The only problem I am told by the PSCO is that they are 12-14yrs old and so nowt much will be done. :grr:

Actually old enough to know right from wrong, therefore should pay the strongest consequence. 64 vehicles = a few thousand pound worth of damage, never mind the inconvenience and and cost for people whose work is affected. SCROTES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Agreed, send the bill for every tyre to the parents.

Then make the little sh*ts replace every tyre. Even if the tyre is already replaced make them take it off and put it back on again!

I know it will never happen though......we're not allowed to punish kids or god forbid make them fix what they did wrong!

Ah fantastic. I don't suppose their parent's give a shit either - and no doubt they, just like rioters, are young, poor and uneducated, because it's the perfect excuse

:rolleyes:

That'll explain mine being done on the golf club car park last night. Thought i'd hit a kerb. Little f*****s

Pretty sure I've seen versions of this which electrify the car body too, rather than just the steering lock...

Thankyou very much Scoot for posting this, had a look at my two cars and they are fine. Looks like the little s**ts stuck very much to a route and didn't come my way on their way from/too? highfields, Western Downes. *&%$@~#+ :grr:

I am sure the tyre stabbing scrotes will suffer the full weight of the law...

Just like the drug addict who smashed my car windows, went to court and.... owes me money he has no intention of paying.

Grrr

Which may change if the government has the balls to go through with the plan of taking money off their benefits for non payment of fines due to criminal activity.

The issue is that they maybe kids. Do we take it off their parents or do we seize their playstations, mobile phone and wide screen telly.

Auction off and pay everyone for the damage.

Whilst reduction in benefits to pay fines is popular it only leads to other issues.

I see nothing wrong with punishing the parents, and letting justice filter down. Owners are legally responsible for their dogs, why not their sprogs?

Makes a change from the normal thing they do which is knocking everyone's wing mirrors off.

Scumbags. When I was a kid I wouldnt have dreamed of doing something like that. You can understand why someone may steal something (they may be poor or desperate for money etc), but vandalism is worse in my eyes.
