Paint Thinner Vandal Strikes Fontana Neighborhood

At least 20 vehicles damaged

Fontana police are searching for at least one person who went on a destructive vandalism spree.

The vandal splashed paint thinner on vehicles parked in the 5100 block of Raccoon Way between midnight and 3 a.m. Tuesday, according to police.

At least 20 cars and one truck were damaged.

The thinner caused the paint finish on the vehicles to just ooze off, police said.  Some car hoods and doors were left with big metal blotches.

No neighbors reported seeing or hearing anything suspicious during the night.
