Vandals Cause Thousands In Damage To Stowe Twp. Vehicles

STOWE TOWNSHIP (KDKA) - Neighbors claim over a half-dozen cars parked along Frazier Avenue in Stowe Township were recently vandalized.

After talking with body shops, Lisa Mazzarese said it was determined that paint thinner was thrown on the vehicles.

"Yesterday, I went and the damage to my car alone is $3,200," said Mazzarese, who needs to get a new lens, bumper and hood.

The paint is now peeling off of the cars and Mazzarese said about $25,000 total in damages was done in a matter of minutes.

Mazzarese told KDKA's Heather Abraham, "My neighbor said, 'Lisa, you're not [going to] believe it. Somebody got your car.' And I came around, and I saw the paint all bubbling up."

Neighbors were hoping that the V.B. Club, which is equipped with outdoor surveillance cameras, may have captured the person or people responsible.
