Anger after hooded “thugs” slash Welshpool car tyres

A Welshpool woman said she is “devastated" after two “thugs” slashed three of her tyres whilst the car was parked in her driveway.

Lesley Williams said the incident in the early hours of Saturday morning at 12.26am was caught on her door camera at Oldford Close, but the pair were wearing hoodies.

“They targeted my car even though there were two other cars nearby,” she told us.

“I’ve contacted the police and sent the footage. But I am devastated and really cross. I just can’t believe it has happened. I’m upset and keep watching the footage over and over.

“People need to be aware of people doing this as my house is hidden away and in the dark. I have no idea why they did it, but it looks like they knew what they were doing.”

The car is a Vauxhall Mokka, and if you have any information that could help the investigation, contact the police on 101.
