\n Ry Tombs shared a video of a man in a grey hoodie, scrawling pink spray paint all over the silver BMW, while it was parked in a taxi rank in Cathedral Square on Friday morning (July 10).\n<\/p>\n

\n Vulgar language, appearing to criticise the driver of the vehicle, appeared in neon paint on the bonnet, as well as on the sides and windows of the car.\n<\/p>\n

\n In the second part of the video, shared on his social media pages, Mr Tombs stands in front of the now-clean car, as a man walks behind him rattling a spray paint can.\n<\/p>\n

\n “I just wanted to say a massive thank you to everybody who shared, commented and liked our post, trying to find the culprit, who has sprayed our M3,” he told followers.\n<\/p>\n

\n “It’s been very disappointing that that has happened to us in Worcester, where we are based, here at Pyramid Car Care.\n<\/p>\n

\n “If you’ve got any information, please let us know and we’ll see you soon.”\n<\/p>\n

\n Throughout the video, Mr Tombs has a spot of pink paint on his t-shirt and, as he lifts his hands at the end, they can be seen covered in pink paint.\n<\/p>\n
