A man who lives on Dublin Street in Halifax says he woke up to discover flat tires on nearly every vehicle on the street Sunday morning.

Alex Short walked outside at 9 a.m. and saw two of his tires were completely flat.

"At first I thought it was only my car," he said. "And then I looked down the street and it was every car up to Willow, and every car down to Windsor."

It appears that during the heavy rain, someone walked down the street, slashing the tires.

Michael Joudrey lives on Willow Street. A car that was parked in front of his house had its tires slashed. Joudrey has a security camera on his home which captures what is happening in front of his house.

"We'll have pictures of it and I'm pretty sure we should be able to get these people for what they've done," he said.

"Somebody will be able to identify them."

Joudrey called the incident a real shame, adding that the people in the neighbourhood are wonderful and supportive.

"This is one of the best streets you could live on in the world," he said.

Halifax Regional Police say tires were slashed on Willow, Dublin and Duncan streets, as well as Chebucto Road.

Short says one by one, his neighbours came out and discovered damage to their vehicles.

Halifax Police were interviewing people along the street. But Short doesn't think anyone noticed anything overnight.

"What can you do?" he said. "It's a senseless crime."

He said people are frustrated because they now face expensive bills to replace their tires.
