"The minibus that is being targeted is used by the nursery for the social and educational needs of the children who attend. The minibus being out of use hugely disadvantages the children’s learning. If it goes unnoticed, damaged tyres cause an extreme risk to those onboard as well as other road users."

Anyone with information is urged to contact police on 101.
