Whole street gets tyres slashed....
Discussion
Right, I've got an old beat up shed Transit, cloned number plates, just half a dozen of you with shotguns needed. Bring your own sandwiches and flask of tea. And night vision glasses!!!!!!!
Det Insp Joe Saunders, from Wiltshire Police, said: ""This is a large-scale incident of criminal damage and one we are taking extremely seriously.
"The offender or offenders have been brazen in the sheer number of vehicles which have been damaged early this morning."
He said they received the first reports at about 03:30 GMT but believe the attacks may have started at 02:00 and continued until 05:00.
So the POLICE sat on their backsides for an hour and half then ?

I had all 4 of my tyres done on my Stang! Absolutely gutted. My partner has a run around and he had two tyres done also.
All the nicer cars in the street were done but funnily the rubbish cars were left alone. It is just crazy! I hope they catch them!

Must admit that was my first thought, but a load of older vans in an industrial estate were also done! So goodness knows. I heard rumour the car park of the local hotel was also hit. Would have to be several people I would think! It was more than 3 streets that have been affected! In a similar vein. In a part of Swindon only 1/2 mile from these incidents, although about 7 years ago I caught a few lads going down the street smacking the wing mirrors of parked cars, luckily the just folded mine in but a few were smashed. Legged it when I had a go. I phoned the police who couldn't send anyone out for 45 mins, even though the police station was a 5 min walk away, suppose everyone could have been out though.

Do car tyres make no noise when they're slashed then? That's serious commitment from someone to go down a whole street doing it.
How much noise they make depends on how you cut them. A stab with a stanley knife will go flat quite quietly and take a minute of two, but anything that makes a wider, longer or jagged hole will make a hissing noise, sometimes quite loud depending on pressure.It wasn't me. I only slash my own tyres.

I was half temped to drive van down their earlier (mobile tyre fitting) but thought it would be bad form.
I can't believe nobody heard/saw anything
They'll be some CCTV, it's too big an area not to be caught somewhere. Chances are they'll be caught. I can't believe nobody heard/saw anything
The courts will say it's not fair on them to be detained. They will be given 10 hours community service.
