North Vancouver RCMP say a suspect has been arrested in connection with a string of tire slashings that damaged several vehicles in the Lynn Valley area last week.

Police received at least 16 reports between October 25 and 26 of tires being punctured or slashed on vehicles parked along Kirkstone Road, Viewlynn Drive, Lynn Valley Road, and Mountain Highway. Investigators believe more victims may not yet have come forward.

After reviewing neighbourhood security video, officers identified a suspect and made an arrest around 5 p.m. on Monday, October 27. The man remains in custody as the investigation continues.

Corporal Mansoor Sahak, media relations officer for the North Vancouver RCMP, said officers conducted an extensive neighbourhood canvass and are encouraging anyone with damaged tires or surveillance footage to contact police. “A dedicated team of investigators is actively reviewing evidence, collecting CCTV footage, and preparing charges,” Sahak said.

Anyone with additional information or footage related to the incidents is asked to contact North Vancouver RCMP at 604-985-1311 and quote file number 25-22526.
