Vandals leave trail of destruction

Wednesday, 19 April 2017 at 00:00

Police are appealing for help after vandals caused "substantial damage" to a number of vehicles over the Bank Holiday weekend.

The vehicles - in varying states of repair - were parked on the Millmount Estate in Braddan when they were targeted.

It happened between 5pm on Thursday and early yesterday morning - pictures which have been shared on Facebook show the extent of the damage.

Inspector Gavin Callow is urging those responsible to think of the consequences of their actions:

Anyone who has any information is asked to contact Police Headquarters or Crimestoppers.
