A motorist was driving down a busy motorway when he realised his car had been sabotaged by climate activists. A group calling themselves 'Tyre Extinguishers' had let down the back right tyre of his Vauxhall Mokka.
Alex Morfitt, 23, was on the M60 in Manchester when a warning light started flashing and he could feel the metal of the wheel scraping on the road surface. He managed to pull over safely when he spotted a note from the protest group, Manchester Evening News reports.
The note left by the 'Tyre Extinguishers', explained that the Vauxhall's tyres had been deflated as part of a protest against SUV vehicles in built-up areas. Alex's car was targeted while it was parked on a street in West Didsbury on Wednesday morning, but he didn't notice the flat tyre before he drove off to work.
