Police are investigating the incident captured on CCTV at Riverside Garage during which 35 vehicles had their tyres damaged
Police are investigating after 35 car tyres were slashed during a three minute rampage in broad daylight at a Glan Conwy garage
CCTV footage captured three men walking to Riverside Garage, Llanrwst Road in Glan Conwy, at 8.43pm on Sunday night (July 17).
One man dressed in a grey hoodie can be seen slashing the tyres on 16 cars as he tries to cover his face with the hood.
Two other men are also seen in the footage captured by eight CCTV cameras located around the forecourt.
The toilet block was also vandalised and pot plants were thrown around during the incident.
The men were on the property for less than three minutes according to the timings on the CCTV footage.
North Wales Police have confirmed they are investigating.
Karen Parri, a receptionist at Riverside Garage said: “We were alerted to what had happened late on Sunday night.
“It was shocking to see so many slashed tyres.
“The toilet in the toilet block has also been taken off the wall, so there was water spouting everywhere.
“My pot plants were also ruined.
“I’m furious because my own car is on sale on the forecourt, and two of its tyres have been slashed.
“It’s going to cost me about £180.
“All in all it’s going to cost the business around £3,000 to replace the ruined tyres.
“And it’s not just the cost, it’s the inconvenience.
“Somebody just wanted a test drive in one of the cars, but I had to ask them to come back when we’ve got new tyres.”
Karen added: “It makes me angry as Riverside is just a small business employing local people.”
A spokeswoman from North Wales Police said: “We received a report of an incident in Glan Conwy on Monday morning, and we are investigating the matter.”
Anyone with information can call police on 101.
