Waterloo Regional Police have released an image of a person they are looking to speak with in connection with the massive number of deflated tires that were reported in the Rockway area of Kitchener earlier this month.
According to police, more than 30 people reported that the tires on their SUVs have been deflated overnight, Sept. 6-7.
They say that the suspect or suspects left notes behind on the windshields of the affected vehicles, which said that the tires were flattened because of the size of the SUVs.
