Reports of more cars damaged during the vandalism spree that took place in the early hours of Sunday morning (June 11, 2017) continue to be received, some from outside of Guildford. A police statement is expected.

Another Dragon reader said: “Five cars on Coronation Road, Aldershot and one car in Jubilee road Aldershot. The police are linking it all to the same people. They’ve done it in Guildford, Ash, Aldershot and Farnham all in the same night. It is said to have been a group of lads in a car. CCTV is a wonderful thing it won’t be long before they catch them I’m sure.”

And T Foster commented: “My sister’s car was also smashed in Old Woking along with at least one other car.”

More evidence of the damage suffered in Burpham, at Sutherland Park has also been sent in. The photos show that the damage was not limited to cars. The glass in a bus shelter was also smashed.
