Car Vandalism Escalates into West Philly, Overbrook

So far in the past months the rampant car vandalism has been isolated in the Northeast, however, this morning about two dozen cars were discovered damaged in the Overbrook neighborhood of West Philly. Police believe the vandalism has become the work of a number of copycats.

The damage has also escalated in nature. Cars this morning were not only found with slashed tires, but also doused with some sort of corrosive chemical or acid, as well as a number with sugar poured in their gas tanks.

Capt. Melvin Singleton of the 19th district said 17 cars had tires slashed with 7 had paint stripped with acid, and a few had the sugar. It all happened in the early morning hours between 3 - 7am on the 6300 block of Lancaster Avenue.

Damage to cars ranges well into the thousands of dollars for the ruined paint jobs.
