A brazen vandal has been caught on camera damaging two vehicles in a Dungiven housing estate. 

In CCTV footage sent to Derry Now, the individual wearing a jumper, dark coloured bottoms and trainers can be seen trailing a large traffic cone through Kevin Lynch Park just after 10.30pm on Saturday, May 14. 

After stopping close to a number of parked vehicles, the individual appears to look around to see if anyone is watching. 

A few moments later the culprit launches the traffic cone and another item at a Mercedes jeep before running off. 

Significant damage was caused to the jeep and also to a Vauxhall Vivaro van parked beside the vehicle. 

Police are investigating the incident and are asking the public to help them identify the individual responsible.placeholder image
