Surrey Police Service is investigating a series of vehicle vandalism incidents after nine parked vehicles were found with smashed windows in the city's Newton neighbourhood early Wednesday morning.

According to police, officers responded at about 5 a.m. to reports of vehicle windows being smashed near 75 Avenue and 147A Street. By the time officers arrived, the suspects had fled the area.

Investigators found that the front, rear and side windows of nine separate parked vehicles had been damaged. Police have reviewed CCTV footage from the area, which shows two suspects believed to be involved in the incident.

Surrey Police Service said both suspects are described as having a slim build and were dressed in black clothing. Investigators believe the suspects used a baseball bat or another heavy club-like object to smash the vehicle windows.

Police are asking residents in the Newton area, as well as motorists who were travelling through the neighbourhood around the time of the incident, to check for dashcam footage. Anyone with information or who can identify the suspects is asked to contact Surrey Police Service at 604-599-0502.
