Nov 6th, 2009 | By Duncan Smith | Isle of Wight News From The Island Pulse

Isle of Wight Police are appealing for information after reports of criminal damage to vehicles in Carisbrooke.

Wing mirrors on a number of vehicles parked in Alvington Road near Carisbrooke High Street were smashed or knocked off sometime between 10.00pm on Friday October 30th and 8.00am on Saturday, October 31st, 2009.

Investigating officer, PC Simon Crew of Hampshire Constabulary’s Isle of Wight Targeted Patrol Teams (TPT) said: 

“This was an act of mindless damage that occurred on what is usually a quiet residential road in Carisbrooke. The damage caused may appear insignificant to some, but the cost of repairing the vehicles could be expensive for each victim. I would urge anyone with information to contact Newport Police Station.”

People with information, or who may have seen anyone acting suspiciously in the Carisbrooke area during Friday night or the early hours of Saturday morning, can phone Newport Police Station on 101. Information can be given anonymously by phoning the Crimestoppers charity on 0800 555 111. Mini-Com users can call 01962 875000. From outside Hampshire and the Isle of Wight, call police on 0845 045 45 45.
