Harringay, Haringey - So Good they Spelt it Twice!
Street vandalised in the night
Our street - Umfreville - has been vandalised for the second time last night. Plants and shrubs torn apart and scattered in the road, car windscreen wiper snapped. a wall damaged. A few weeks ago someone (probably the same person) snapped off several of our new street trees, which we fundraised for last year. A bit heartbreaking and also scary.
I'm wondering if any other streets have seen this pattern of damage or if we are uniquely targetted - I'm assuming that some kind of drug house has opened up again locally, as there have also been several cases of people collapsed in the street or wandering delirious on Green Lanes.
We keep reporting things to the police, but so far nobody has actually responded or been round to see what is happening.

Seems it's not just one street but several across the area, both sides of Green Lanes.

This also happened in Burgoyne. Reported to police and taken away in an ambulance in Stapleton Hall Road. He is known to police and is obviously mentally ill.

Also happened in Rectory Gardens off Hornsey High Street a few weeks back. Damage to trees and car windows. Someone said it was being done by a local who'd been evicted. I don't know if that's the case or not.
