A man in London was caught on camera keying an Aston Martin, causing approximately $14,000 in damage, the Metropolitan Police Service said.
Authorities published video of the incident on Facebook Monday as an appeal to find the man responsible for the action.
“Officers from Hackney would like to trace a man with a baby in a pushchair after he deliberately keyed £9,000 worth of damage to an Aston Martin,” police said.

Well, you can see it's not in the US, since he is at least taking care of his kid.
The new dashcams are motion activated to record and save any motion
from around the vehicle, front and back. And they're very inexpensive.
What kind of person defaults to vandalism like that?
This destructive loser has the mentality of Obama. Wonder if they are related.
why? Its called hate and jealousy being encouraged by leftists
Too bad they can’t wire a helluva zapper to the camera.
Socialist.
“Let them touch those things for once!”
Keying an Aston Martin? My husband would have broken his knee caps.
Well, you can’t see for certain that there’s a kid in the pram. Maybe he’s a drug dealer, and that’s his inventory.
Not a single luxury car in Paris is not keyed.
I’ve never had a car that wasn’t keyed
I guessed. And I was right.
$14,000? Mighty expensive paint.
It’s easy to spend $250,000 on a proper paint job to refurbish a classic car.
$14,000 to repaint, correctly, an entire side of a $300,000 car is quite reasonable - especially with DEEP damage like a key makes.
His face twitch may indicate a drug habit.
Yep. That is what it is all about. Envy, jealousy, hate, and racism.
A nice toxic stew that is the main diet of leftists.
WOW!
Of course, I’ve never owned a car like that.
Aston Martins have been in production for more than 80 years.
It took 75 years for them to produce their 10,000th auto.
During the late 50’s to the end of the 60’s Aston Martin was owned by a wealthy Brit named David Brown bringing the DB series of vehicles (the Aston Martin DB-6 that James Bond drove in the early movies, for instance).
Mr. Brown saved the Mark from going into receivership by subsidizing each car produced.
There is a true story of Mr. Brown being asked by another gentleman at a cocktail party if Mr. Brown would sell him a car at cost. “Of course!”
The details were finalized (interior and exterior colors and the like) and the order was placed.
When the car was delivered the invoice was for $24,000 instead of the $12,000 retail!
There will always be an England, as they say.
Yikes, that’s terrible. I suppose I’ve never owned a car that prompts envy and hate to that level. Then again, those types of foul characters resent anything that someone else is willing to actually work for.
