Convicted Mayfair tire slasher arrested again

Saturday, November 22, 2014
OXFORD CIRCLE (WPVI) -- David Toledo, the man convicted previously in a series of tire slashings in Philadelphia's Mayfair section, was arrested once again for the same crime - this time in his new neighborhood.

Toledo now resides in Oxford Circle.

Detectives started an investigation along the 1600 block of Creston Street, after receiving a number of complaints of vandalism.

On Wednesday morning, two SEPTA employees say they saw a man place a mousetrap fitted with nails in front of a car tire.

Toledo was quickly identified as a suspect and was arrested at his home.



Toledo is currently serving two years of probation for the string of tire slashings in Mayfair back in 2012.
