A man caused thousands of dollars in damage to dozens of cars after smashing their windows in North Hollywood early Tuesday, according to the Los Angeles Police Department.
Shortly after 4:30 a.m., officers received calls about a man smashing car windows. When police arrived, witnesses pointed out the man they said was responsible.
He was arrested for felony vandalism after damaging 29 cars, LAPD said.
Police said the man used a rock to break the windows of the vehicles.
Although this was a zero-dollar bail crime, which does not require a monetary payment from individuals arrested for certain offenses, the LAPD said that due to the man’s prior record, a magistrate hearing was requested before the man goes to court or bail is imposed.
Law enforcement sources tell NBC4 Investigates that the man has had multiple arrests for vandalism in the past.
Anyone who had their car damaged was urged to call the LAPD North Hollywood division at 818-754-8300.
