Anger as vandals slash tyres of eight cars in centre of Burnham

Police are investigating a spate of vandalism attacks in which the tyres of at least eight vehicles were slashed in the centre of Burnham-On-Sea this week.

The tyres were slashed in Jubilee Street and Summerville Terrace on Tuesday evening (January 29th) - as pictured here.

Angry residents now face expensive bills to repair their tyres - and one local garage confirmed to Burnham-On-Sea.com it had been a busier-than-normal week.

Spokesman Dan Mountain told Burnham-On-Sea.com: "We dealt with at least eight incidents in the Jubile Street area at around 9pm on Tuesday evening. We have already made extensive enquiries and keen to speak to anyone who saw anything suspicious or may be able to help us."

Police are urging anyone with information to contact Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
