Another vandalism attack on hire cars at Puerto de la Cruz port
The esplanade at Puerto de la Cruz port has once again been the scene of vandalism targeting hire cars. This time, two tourist vehicles were found with smashed windows, an incident that police sources say is becoming a regular occurrence in this part of the northern town.
The affected vehicles belong to the fleets of rental companies Avis, specifically a Skoda Fabia, and CICAR, a Fiat Hybrid. After receiving the alert, a police patrol was immediately dispatched to the scene to inspect the area, log the details of the damaged vehicles, and launch an investigation to identify those responsible for the damage.
Residents and port users voice concerns
Residents and users of the area have expressed their unease over the increase in such incidents, which target the hire cars parked around the port. The recurring nature of these attacks has prompted calls for greater security measures to protect both the vehicles and the tranquillity of the portside environment.
