The tires on approximately 16 cars in Fairfield were slashed sometime overnight Saturday into Sunday, police said.  

Two cars were vandalized in a different way: a profanity was spray painted on another vehicle, and someone keyed a profanity onto another car (as well as slashed tires on that car).    

The streets targeted were:    

  • Church Hill Road (Six reports of slashed tires)
  • Lloyd Drive (Two reports of slashed tires) 
  • Davis Road (Two reports of slashed tires) 
  • Bullard Street (One report of slashed tires) 
  • Lenox Road (One report of slashed tires) 
  • Adley Road (Two reports of slashed tires) 
  • Vermont Avenue (One report of slashed tires and a profanity keyed onto the car) 
  • Black Rock Turnpike, in The Karate School parking lot (a report of spray painted profanity on car) 
  • Crane Street (One report of slashed tires)  
A Church Hill Road complainant told police he might have noticed suspects at 8 p.m. Saturday, when he saw two "kids" running and hiding behind cars on his street. One of the suspects was wearing a green hoodie; the other a red hoodie.    

Anyone with information should call the Fairfield Police Department at 203-254-4800.
