(La Porte, IN) - La Porte Police are investigating a number of tires on vehicles being slashed over the weekend.  The tires were cut in areas like John and Ohio streets and near the Civic Auditorium.

Mayor Tom Dermody is asking the public, especially residents with any video from home surveillance systems, to help police develop leads in the case.

“This is unacceptable in the City of La Porte and we will catch them.  We've got some ideas already.  We've got a few videos and we will get this taken care of because, again, this is unacceptable and we'll catch them,” he said.

Apparently, the tires were slashed Saturday night and/or early Sunday.
