Tires slashed on at least 13 more cars in Ansonia

ANSONIA — Police today reported tires were slashed overnight on at least 13 vehicles parked along North Cliff and Winter streets.
Lt. Andrew Cota said an officer on patrol at around 6 a.m. noticed that several cars in that neighborhood had flat tires.
Police have stepped up patrols in the neighborhood, Cota said.
Police said they believe the vandalism was committed by the same person or people who vandalized 12 vehicles on Sunset Drive and a pool on Ridge Road in the north end of the city between 2 and 4 a.m. Sunday.
Police said Monday it appeared as if the Sunday morning vandalism spree started on Hubbell Avenue and continued north onto Sunset Drive and then onto Ridge Road and Morningside Drive.
The suspects are believed to have fled onto Underhill Road and then onto Gardner’s Lane to Woodlawn Avenue and into the wooded area.
Cota said today the suspects are most likely teens or in their early 20s. He asked anyone who has any information to contact police at 203-735-1885 and ask for him.
