Young vandals caught on CCTV cutting hole in convertible car roof

Suspects left the scene empty-handed

A man has been caught on camera slashing a hole in the roof of a convertible car.

Several people tried the handles of the car before the vandal cut a 2ft triangular shape in the top of the vehicle in Undercliffe, St Leonards, East Sussex.

The suspects left the scene empty-handed at around 2.30am on 3 December.

Police Constable Andrew Misrahi said: “The suspects can be seen trying the handles on a variety of cars and something must have caught their eye within the convertible.

“Without hesitation the suspect slices the top of the roof, taking the piece completely off.

“We are appealing to anyone who has information on these suspects to come forward immediately.”

Police are appealing for anyone with information to report it online or call 101 quoting the reference number 843 of 03/12.
