Arrest after tyres damaged on five police vehicles

A man has been arrested after five police vehicles and a parked car near a police station had their tyres damaged.

Hampshire & Isle of Wight police said in total 13 tyres on the vehicles parked on the street on Station Street in Ryde were damaged on Friday at about 23:00 BST.

The force said leaving the vehicles temporarily out of action "had a significant impact on our ability to respond to incidents and serve our communities".

A 27-year-old man from Newport was arrested on suspicion of criminal damage. He has since been bailed until 18 January while inquiries continue.
