CARS parked on a road close to Liverpool John Lennon Airport (JLA) have been smashed up and left for days.

The ECHO saw reports yesterday that vehicles on Hale Road in Speke had been damaged.

When we visited the busy road, we spotted two cars that had been damaged. The driver and all of the passenger windows of a white Hyundai had been smashed in, while the back window had been hit too.

Three windows of a blue Volvo had also been fully smashed, with damage also sustained to the back window. The car had also been egged and one of its tyres had been punctured.

People living on the street said the cars had been parked there for several days and added they had spotted the damage on Saturday. They believe the cars belong to holidaymakers.
