RCMP have nabbed two teens after a tire-slashing rampage at Wonderland Trailer Park in Lake Echo.
Police say 18 vehicles at 15 residences were hit, and some had multiple tires attacked.
Kevin Briand had his two drivers side tires slashed.
“I was pretty ticked off I can tell you that,” said Briand.
RCMP Sgt. Jeff West is wondering why anyone would do this.
“You really scratch your head, and you have to wonder what is going through their mind when they’re out doing this.”
The damage is estimated at nearly $15,000 and because the tires were punctured from the side they cannot be fixed.
The male suspects, both aged 13, cannot be named under the Youth Criminal Justice Act. They are charged with 15 counts of Mischief Under $5000 and will appear in court in January.
