A motorist only noticed his tyre had been let down by climate activists as he was driving along the M60.
Alex Morfitt's Vauxhall Mokka was targeted by a group called 'Tyre Extinguishers' while it was parked on a street in West Didsbury on Wednesday morning. When the 23-year-old later set off for work, he failed to realise that his back right tyre had been deflated.
It was one of dozens of vehicles the activists, which have branded 4x4s and SUVs "a disaster for our climate", damaged in the suburb this week. "I just got into the car normally," he explained.
