This pleasant suburban location is a crime scene. For some weeks cars parked hereabouts have been vandalised in an unusual fashion by having their anti-lock braking systems attacked. The perpetrators remained unidentified until recently when an off-duty police officer found teeth marks on the damaged parts of his car's brakes. Further forensic investigations confirmed that the offenders were of American extraction and members of the notorious Sciurus crime family http://www.swindonadvertiser.co.uk/news/8456675.Furry_vandal_drives_police_nuts/
