Vandals have struck at a Tewkesbury garage twice in four days.

On Saturday October 21, cars on the forecourt of the Warners Peugeot garage in Shannon Way had their windscreens and windows smashed, causing thousands of pounds of damage. Then on Tuesday evening a car on the same forecourt was burned out.

Garage spokesman Kerry Carr said: "They seem to be targeting us, it is quite scary."

Then on Saturday night two other premises on the same side of Shannon Way were also targeted; two cars belonging to workers at Astron Documentation Services had windscreens smashed, and a window at Severn Vale Housing's offices was broken.

Police plan to step up patrols in the area.
