London: Hackney Borough Police confirms that a 28 year old man was arrested this morning in connection with the damage of a number of vehicles in Stamford Hill, and male remains in custody.

More than 100 tyres were slashed on cars assumed to belong to Jews, affecting a total of 63 vehicles. The majority of vehicles targeted were Volvo’s and people-carriers, leading Stamford Hill Shomrim (Jewish volunteer organisation) to conclude this was targeted at Jews.
