A GANG of youths went on a destructive rampage causing damage to a number of cars in Lodge Park last Tuesday.

Police are investigating the incident, which happened at about 10pm in Sillins Avenue and Prospect Road.

Between three and four youths damaged the wing mirrors of three cars and caused further damage to others before being chased away by residents.

Pc Neville Patterson said: "This is a despicable incident of mindless damage to other people's property.

"I believe people in the area must have heard or seen these youths and may even know who they are.

"I would ask them to contact me."

The youths were all described as white and aged between 16 and 18.

Anyone with information about the incident can call Redditch police on 584888 or Crimestoppers on 0800 555111.
