ASTON MARTIN ATTACKED AT HAMPTON COURT GOLF CLUB
A £250. 000 Aston Martin Vantage convertible has been badly vandalised in the car park of Hampton Court Palace Golf Club, we can reveal.
The car, which has a personalised number plate BO55 BOB, had its driver’s side window and the rear window completely smashed and the windscreen shattered.
Witnesses saw a man pull a hammer from his rucksack and smash the windows, the lights and tore the roof open.
When police arrived minutes after the incident they immediately declared the car as a ‘write off’ and interviewed witnesses and the owner, who had been walking his two terrier dogs.
The attacker also sprayed the word CHEATER across the bonnet in white paint or liquid.
The police are investigating and a forensics team has attended the scene searching for clues.
One witness filmed the vandalism from a distance and captured a man walking away from the scene, wearing shorts and heading in the direction of the river.
A spokesperson for The Met told Teddington Town: “Police were called at around 14:00hrs on Monday, 25 May to reports of criminal damage to a vehicle at a sports club in Dillon Close, Molesey.
“Officers attended and searched the area, but were unable to locate the suspect.
“No arrests have been made, and enquiries continue.”
Anyone with information is asked to contact police on 101, quoting CAD 4251/25MAY or Crimestoppers, anonymously, on 0800 555 111.
