UK: Four Speed Cameras Trashed
Four Thames Valley, UK speed cameras are destroyed within three weeks.

In just three weeks, a quartet of speed cameras in England's Thames Valley have gone up in flames. The most recent attack took place early Sunday at Sawpit Hill in Hazlemere where a burning tire was used to take out the speed camera. Two days earlier in the evening, a similar tire fire burned a Gravel Hill camera in Chalfont St. Peter.

On Friday the prior week, a camera in Denham on the north orbital road was destroyed. Three weeks ago, a tire stuffed with rags incinerated a camera at Lane End, a site that had previously been vandalized.
