Mad Tire-Slasher David Toledo Arrested


The man who was slashing tires all over Mayfair, Pennsylvania has been caught. Oddly enough, the perpetrator turned out to be one of the dudes who was screaming the loudest about the need to catch the slasher. The old "the guy who makes the most noise is probably guilty" routine. Gets them every time. Unless the perpetrator is a mute. So the lesson is, if you want to get away with crime, have your vocal cords removed. Or, here's a suggestion, JUST SHUT YOUR FUCKING MOUTH.

David Toledo is the man who got arrested for slashing all the tires. Needless to say, the good folks of Mayfair, Pennsylvania are pissed off at this dude. No no no. They're PISSED OFF at this dude. "He'd better stay in jail because if he comes out there's not going to be much left of him," one of the slashing victims told the media. Another said, "He better get his car off the street because people are going to get stab-happy real quick." As it says in the Bible, an eye for an eye, a Goodyear for a Goodyear.

This probably seems like a little too much anger over some tire slashings. Well it was 55 slashings. That's a lot of slashings. Still, threatening the dude after he's already gotten arrested? Must be more to this story. Well as a matter of fact there is. Even before the slashings, David Toledo gave the people of Mayfair a good reason to hate his guts. In one of the slicker and more assholey schemes you're ever gonna see, David fooled his neighbors into paying for his wedding. Just after David and his fiance moved to town, David went around soliciting donations to throw a block party. Cool way to intro yourself to your new neighbors right? Only problem is, soon as the block party starts, David and his fiance come running out, her in a wedding dress, and get married in the street.

THAT is a pretty slick scam. If David Toledo had stopped there, maybe the folks of Mayfair could've come to one day grudgingly admire him. But then the shit with the tires started. And he's running around saying they should form a neighborhood watch to catch the person who is actually him. To their credit, some of the Mayfair people suspected David all along. "Hey I bet it's that motherfucker who ripped us off on that wedding scam and is always running around crying about the tire slasher!" Nailed him, gramps.
