Garage owner catches vandal on CCTV camera
The incident was caught on camera at around 4am on June 20 when a man in a car pulled up outside the forecourt of Speedway Corner Garage, near Ruskington, ripped a length of trim off the roof of a Mini before hopping back in his car and driving off.
Mark Arnold opened the car sales and repairs business with hand car wash in January. He said it would cost around £200 to replace the part.

Having reported the matter to the police, out of the blue he says he received a phone message alleged to be from the suspect offering to repay the damage. Mr Arnold has passed the information on to police.
