If you live in Bengeo and have woken up to find your car damaged, contact Hertford police station. They have the culprit which may help with a claim.

Is it one partcular area like it was before? Mine is ok as it is kept in a garage thankfully.

I think it was mainly the area was from Gosselin Road down to Barleycroft. Barleycroft took quite a hit.

Not far from before then, what do they get out of damaging other peoples property?

I don't think the damage was intentional - more that they weren't in a fit state to know what they were doing.

I think you are being a bit naive John - sorry. I have seen people do this and it is definitely deliberate.

I don't think they deliberately meant to smash into a tree, flatten a lamp post and wreck a neighbour's car.

There used to be an old boy (now deceased and no names mentioned)who lived in Nelson Street who used to deliberately key the doors of cars parked in the road - and admit it! Apparently he didn't like anyone to have something that he didn't!

Our car was keyed a few years ago at the bottom of Nelson Street but we presumed it was kids - now I am beginning to wonder.....
