RENTON, Wash — Renton police are looking for at least one suspect who is responsible for damaging 15 cars at an apartment complex early Wednesday morning.
Police said they believe the vandalism occurred between 3:00 and 3:15 a.m. Officers responded after several victims found the damage around 6:30 a.m. Upon a search of the complex, police noticed the additional vehicles that had been hit.
Gena Altheimer recorded a video diary of the damage she woke up to Wednesday morning.
“They went through the car, my glove box," Altheimer said. "They took out the registration and threw everything on the seats."
She needs four new car windows.
"Then it has to go to the body shop because they walked up on my car,” Altheimer said.
Altheimer quickly learned she was not alone. It became evident that there was a window-smashing spree at her Renton apartment complex.
"Everybody starts saying they got my car, they got my car, they got my car,” Altheimer said. "Just malicious for no reason. How can you just be that evil just to want to destroy people's property?"
Anyone with information is asked to call 911 and reference Case #24-2174.
