Vandals damage 13 cars in under two hours in Orford
THIRTEEN cars were smashed up in less than two hours during a rampage by vandals in Orford.
The fleet of vehicles was damaged between 1am and 2.40am on Saturday on Fisher Avenue, Statham Avenue and Crowe Avenue.
Police say wing mirrors were broken off, body work was dented and windscreens put through.
An 18-year-old man and a 17-year-old boy have been arrested and released on police bail pending further enquiries.
Insp Neil Drum of Warrington Central NPU, said: "We are appealing to anyone with any information about the incidents to please come forward.
"Incidents of criminal damage such as this can cause considerable upset to the victims.
“This sort of behaviour is not acceptable and will not be tolerated."
Anyone with any information can call police on 101 quoting incident number 115 of March 16.
Information can also be left anonymously, via Crimestoppers, on 0800 555 111.

Then why give them bail ??.
Why not put them in court the next day instead of dragging it out for months on end. If they are convicted then name them because you certainly wont shame them.

Only in orford....glad I live in safe part not Longford or Grassmere! These places are among the worst places in the UK in terms of deprived areas.
it is spelt Grasmere. Go to the Lakes to look it up. They may be a "Rural Postman" job up there. You can do a job of work and get off our backs.

What horrible little scumbags ! Unfortunately the victims will be left with the bill for the damages (or there insurers). A vigilantly type group would get some satisfaction out of battering these scrotes I know I would, but where these no sense there's no feeling ... Jail them !

What winds me up is the usual "lets all take the rip out of Orford!" Wind your necks in cos there is plenty of worse places in the world to be! Shove ur Appleton and Crofts attitudes where the snobby sun doesn't shine!!! And yes vandalism does occur in other places within the borough!!! we are not all drug and alcohol crazed idiots in orford and some of us actually work and pay taxes so get off your high horses and accept that crime occurs in every corner of this town. When its Orford it tends to be reported a little more. Not surprising when there is a large population living in the area. theres loads of thieves in the Risley area lol!!!!!!

It doesn't matter if you live in orford or not. Even if your car is not insured these little tramps shouldnt be damaging other people's cars. Old codger....open your eyes! Vandalism happens everywhere!

The fact i reside in the safer part of the ward is something I see as a positive. Would hate to be in the rough parts and I would rather chance walking through moss side than walking through some of the ghettos in orford!

The CPS (criminal protection squad) are the biggest problem why things don't go to court, my car was broken into and the cps decided against charging the offender even though the police thought they would.
Arrested and bailed exactly. Bailed for god knows how long and lets face it there not going to get the punishment they deserve are they?!
