Climate change activists with a group calling itself Tyre Extinguishers are celebrating their first 'action' in New York City - deflating the tires of 40 SUVs on Manhattan's Upper East Side.
The movement, which originated in the United Kingdom, seeks to dissuade people from owning SUVs in urban areas, and switch instead to more environmentally-friendly vehicles.
The SUVs they vandalized had leaflets let on the windshield, which stated: 'Attention: Your gas guzzler kills'.
On Twitter, they boasted about their actions.
'BIG NEWS: TYRE EXTINGUISHERS STRIKE FOR THE FIRST TIME IN NEW YORK CITY!' they tweeted on Tuesday.
They said: '40 SUVs disarmed in the Upper East Side, the first of many.
'We have an American English leaflet ('tire' rather than 'tyre') on our website so USA folks, you can join in!'
Police are investigating, but no arrests have been made.

It would be a shame if they tried a stunt like this anywhere in Texas.
Arrange for a “Nature Encounter” with a gator.
Foreign saboteurs and agitators should be hung from trees like apples.
Catch you messing with my truck, you are gonna need help with personal hygiene and other daily tasks...
The best part is that those gas-guzzling SUVs probably were owned by Upper East Side limousine / SUV liberals who think that they are doing everything they can to save the environment.
Agreed.
And I appreciate the lesser number of ‘black-pill’ posts these days.
Helps to provide a more active, kinetic environment, which is much needed in these times.

What does the square in Jackson have to do with this? Am I missing something?
Were these terrorists exhaling CO2? Hypocrites.
Try that in Florida, we might let the air out of them...
I wonder why they aren’t deflating the tires on the Harkles’ Range Rovers...
SPJNK.
I don’t think they should try that in Staten Island, Little Italy , most parts of the Brooklyn or anywhere in the Bronx.
Unless, you want to end up floating in the Hudson.
Their British? How did they get here? By plane or a wooden sailboat with canvas sails?
They must be driving around themselves. Probably a SUV so they can have all the criminals together.
That's exactly the thought I had.
Do they think these kind of stunts are actually going to change behavior? Of course not but they might end up getting their faces punched in.
Would be comedy gold if one of these p?ssies tried this in my area. 85% carry and the Men have a lot of testosterone, so if the p?ssy was very lucky ‘they’ would be beat to a bloody pulp.
I guess they took a sail boat over.
See all the SUVs and Trucks driving around , LOL
New Yorkers will now see how helpful CCW truly is
Stupid limeys don’t know how to spell TIRE.
Let’s see them try this outside cities around the US.
