“Tire Slashing behind Zoo”

“Dear PoPville,

Just a warning for people who park in Woodley/AdMo/Zoo areas. I parked my car Saturday evening on Adams Mill Rd NW and Harvard St NW, right near the Harvard Street entrance to the National Zoo. I came back Sunday and at least 3 other cars plus my own all had a flat tire on the front passenger sides of each car.

After taking my car to a garage, I found out someone had made two gashes in the side wall of my tire, meaning it’s not reparable and I have to buy a new tire. I assume the other three cars will have the same issue. Be wary when parking here over night.”
