 Runners in a posh town say they are being attacked by a mystery yob who is throwing VEGETABLES at them. Joggers in Chletenham in Gloucester have been pelted with potatoes, eggs, turnips and even avocades in the drive-by attacks. The first incident saw a runner hit with a spud flung from a passing car and a spate of vegetable-based peltings have since been reported. One victim who was hit, James Smith, said: "I was hit by a vegetable projectile recently in Cheltenham. "I was walking on Hewlett Road and someone from a passing car threw an avocado at my back, while also shouting something incoherent at me."  Toby Lewis said: "I was the victim of a 'drive-by spudding' when I was walking home from Cheltenham town centre."
And Mike Smith added: "I was walking with a group of friends and we were pelted with eggs from an unknown vehicle. "Assuming it's the same people, and they've 'upgraded' to potatoes, it would be great if the police could find them and do something about it." |
