Several convertible tops slashed overnight

Several reports of convertible car tops being vandalized overnight.

From email:
I live on the 300 block of 27th Street. The roof of my car was slashed sometime during the night last night. Police report being filed.

From Twitter:
@jennifereason vandals sliced my convertible roof some time yesterday evening at the corner of 30th & East Marshall.

And we’ve received anecdotal reports that a Mercedes on Grace Street was also vandalized.
Church Hill Crime Watch sent out an e-mail just a bit ago about another one on 29th St.
Is the goal to get into the car, or just to be an asshole? Maybe not rational, but it seems more upsetting if it’s done without any real motive…
In my case, I think just to be a jerk.
The crime watch email said the vehicle was ransacked but nothing was taken, that’s the one on 29th in the 0 block which borders Libby Hill Park.
Mine was just clearly vandalism — they tore a hole in the top and clearly didn’t make any attempt to take anything (not that there was anything to take anyway). We are on 30th & Marshall along with several other convertibles. Watch out!
From the Church Hill Crime Watch:
From Sector 111 Lt.Sayles:
Have had some recent run-in’s with smallish groups of male & female teens. While walking my dog within sight of my house, watched them throw rocks at it. Caught up with them, and we had a polite, but direct chat. Please report suspicious activity by calling *911*, NOT the non-emergency #. Also, there is an 11:00 Curfew for teens (hint).
