Others said they just wished they had caught the culprits red-handed.

They included Lee Potter, 66, who discovered his car covered with graffiti and further spray paint on the front wall of his property.

He said fortunately a neighbour, who had also been a victim, gave him some solvent to clean his car.

'I thought, what's that on the windscreen?' he said. 'It was also down the bonnet and on each window on the side.'

Mr Potter said the graffiti on the wall just meant repainting it would have to be done sooner.

Graffiti was sprayed on nine vehicles and three road signs as well as on the pavement.

The majority of it was lines, but offensive words were sprayed on two vehicles.
