ALMOST a dozen vehicles had their tyres slashed in an early morning attack in the Highercroft area of Blackburn.

Eleven vehicles were attacked in Lytham Road, Pilmuir Road and Manxman Road.

Police called it "a mindless act of vandalism".

The attacks took place around 1.35am on Monday and police have revealed details of four men they want to speak to.

Police sergeant Simon Holderness from Blackburn Police said: "This is a pointless, mindless attack that was totally unprovoked and caused distress to all those affected.

"We want to make sure that we find the people responsible and bring them to justice."

Officers want to speak to a 35 to 40-year-old white male who was wearing a black top and black trousers and a 20 to 25-year-old white male with short light brown hair wearing dark clothing.

They also want to speak to a third male who had either no hair or very short shaven hair, and a fourth male who was not wearing a top.

They had been seen in the area at the time of the attack, officers said.
