VunduIs Hit
3OCurs in
Northwest

A vandal or group of vandals
swept through 10 blocks of
Northwest Washington over the
week end, leaving a trail of
punctured tires, cut engine
wires and shattered windows.
Police Sergt. Wayne Duvall
of the sixth precinct said the
vandalism occurred between 3
and 5 am. yesterday to more
than 80 cars in the area from
First to Fourth streets and Bu-
chanan to Emerson streets.
He said this was the second
time within two months that
someone has damaged cars in
the same area. On the previous
occasion. however, only about
20 autos were involved and the
vandal or vandals concentrated
on breaking windshields and
vent windows.
The damage apparently was
done for no reason, police said,
with some cars being bypassed
while others received full at
tention.
Owners reported that on one
car two tires were slashed, a
right vent window broken and
a dashboard crash pad slashed
while on another a side window
was broken and one tire pune
tured.
In still other cases, a con-
vertible top was cut open, wires
were pulled out or cut under
hoods and a radio antenna was
broken.
