Unknown gunman shatters windows of multiple cars in Tallinn's Lasnamäe

A resident of Kivila Street in Tallinn's Lasnamäe district discovered on Monday that his wife's car windshield had a bullet hole. It soon became clear that other residents' vehicles had suffered the same fate.

An unknown gunman has been active in Tallinn's Lasnamäe district, targeting residents' parked cars. At the beginning of the week, residents in apartment courtyards on Kivila Street discovered bullet holes in their vehicle windows.

Vladimir, one of the affected residents and a local of the area, found on Monday that his wife's car windshield had been shattered. At first, he couldn't figure out exactly what had happened – it was only later that it became clear this was an intentional act, and the same had happened to other neighbours' cars.

Police are aware of the incident and are investigating the circumstances. This represents a serious security threat to residents, as an unknown person is moving freely about the city, firing a weapon at parked cars in car parks. Lasnamäe is a densely populated district of Tallinn with a large number of inhabitants.

Residents are urged to remain vigilant and contact police on 112 if they notice anything suspicious. Anyone with additional information about the incident is asked to contact the police.
