A 50 year old man who allegedly went on a window-smashing spree in Vancouver's West End has been arrested.

Police say the suspect caused thousands of dollars in damage on Wednesday.

Sergeant Steve Addison says officers were deployed throughout the downtown core in September in response to concerns about rising crime and public safety, and those efforts are starting to pay off.

Police say since August, an average of 11 reports a week have been filed by business owners who've had their windows smashed.
