POLICE Forensic specialists were called in on Sunday after a town councillor had his windscreen deliberately smashed over night last Sunday (June 17).
Sunday’s incident is the latest in an on-going problem of criminal damage to vehicles parked in Park Street, Thame, particularly over-night on Fridays and Saturdays.
Cllr Mike Dyer told ThameNews: “Neighbours heard a loud commotion during the early hours of Sunday morning but it wasn’t until the next morning that I was told it was my car. It looks as though the windscreen has been deliberately kicked in.
“We have had problems with bent windscreen wipers and wing mirrors before from time to time along this street, but this takes the problem to a new level.”
“Some residents have been calling for cctv cameras to be installed in the street but we understand that there is no budget for that at the moment. We are currently forming a Neighbourhood Watch group and are hoping that the police will do all they can to tackle this problem which has now been going on for a long time.”
