Car tyres are being destroying by someone deliberately inserting six inch screws into them, according to the angry residents of one quiet suburb. Vehicles owners who live in Rogerstone, Newport have been using social media to fume about the spate of attacks which have left them having to fork out for costly repairs.
One woman posted on her community Facebook page late last week to warn others after discovering one of the tyres on her Seat car had a large screw sticking out of its side wall. Taking it to her local garage she was told the tyre was irreparable and would have to be completely replaced.
In addition, staff there also informed her it wasn't the only such example they'd seen recently. Furthermore, her online post prompted dozens of responses from locals who've also suffered similar acts of vandalism.
