Vandal spree angers local Hastings residents

HASTINGS, Neb. (AP) — Residents of Hastings say they are frustrated with an apparent spree of vandalism to vehicles that has left tires slashed and car windows broken.

Local media says vandals have been reported in at least three areas of the city in recent days.

Bryan Resser says he found his new truck Monday morning with a flat tire, a punctured hole in a side panel and other marks and carvings. He says he doubts police will find whoever did it but he hopes the spree stops soon.

Resident Andrea Dieken says both of her family’s cars had tires slashed, and her husband saw almost every single car on the street had similar damage.

A police sergeant told the television station there are no leads yet in the case.
