Someone keeps stabbing tyres down my friends road and we've all had to fork out for new tyres at least once. We think it's just kids thinking they're funny but we're getting a bit sick of it. We don't think it's a personal vendetta as it's been really random and we're all pretty quiet people who keep ourselves to ourselves. As we have no evidence or idea of who it is that's doing it, do you think it's worth going to the police about? Thanks....

This used to happen a lot at a remote pub that I used to go to.
Turned out it was the local 24 emergency tyre call-out guy.

Had the same problem a couple of years ago on the road I live on. Turned out to be a 10 year old kid. Had to come round and apologise to the whole street. Get the police in

Personally, yeah i would tell the police, but i would also try n get a gang of people from the street to hide in different places in wait with buckets of freezing cold water so when/if these little twats strike they will have a big shock and you are not really hurting them so you wont feel guilty.

That would really aggrivate me too. We had a wave of car break-ins in my apartment complex about a year ago and my roomate's car gotten broken into and his CD player was stolen. Why can't people learn to have respect for other people's property?! I would report it to the authorities. I just had to spend about $350 for 4 new tires on Saturday so I know they aren't cheap. Maybe someone could set up a video camera to record your street at night and then you could play it back at a fast speed later to at least find out who's doing it.

yes get together and get all the times and dates from everyone in the street
then go to your police station and at the desk ask to speak to the community action officer (might need to book it ) and present ti to him and he will get patrolls to go around you area just to show a presence and it will soon stop
we had a problem with kids on there mini motor bikes and thats all we did and no a peep since

Yeah...you need to catch the f*ckers in the act ! Probably turn out to be a neighbour who doesn't like you parking near or in front of their house !
