VANDALS broke wing mirrors, car windscreens and threw eggs at multiple cars in an early morning spree in St John's.
Police said residents of Brookside Road and Penhill Crescent were targeted overnight on Saturday into Sunday morning (November 25 and 26).
However, people living in the area said they suffered from similar vandalism attacks the previous Thursday.
Diana McClory, age 81, who lives in a bungalow in Brookside Road said she was targeted.
She said: "I had eggs thrown at my window last Thursday."
This is not the first time she has been targeted.
"I had eggs thrown at my window a month ago too.
"I think it might just be silly youngsters. The lady next door also had an egg thrown at her window two weeks ago."
Other residents said they were aware of a problem in the area.
Tony Webb, age 90, also lives in Brookside Road.
He said: "Apparently the vandals started causing chaos at 4am last Thursday. A lot of cars had their tyres slashed."
Tony James, 46, who lives further up Brookside Road, said: "I got up at 5am, but I didn't hear anything.
"The first I heard about the vandalism was when I saw a post on Facebook. My neighbours across the road caught everything on camera, they sent the footage to the police.
"There has been a spate of these incidents."
PCSO Kate Hand, of St John's and Bedwardine safer neighbourhood policing team, said it has been reported to police.
She said: "Overnight from Saturday, November 25 to the morning of Sunday, November 26 a number of vehicles on Brookside Road and Penhill Crescent had damage caused to them.
"Wing mirrors were bent back and windscreens were cracked.
"We do not have a specific time frame but believe there might have been some activity in the area around 4.30am."
West Mercia Police are appealing to residents in St John's for more information on the vandalism.
