VIDEO: Former congressional candidate caught slashing fellow GOP candidate’s tires

After reviewing surveillance video apparently showing former Congressional District 1 Republican primary candidate Gary Smith slashing the tires of at least four fellow Republicans, including his primary opponent, Janice Arnold-Jones, Albuquerque Police Department Detectives have issued a warrant for his arrest.

…Arnold-Jones and her husband John Jones say they were feeling vulnerable after finding their vehicles’ tires punctured on back-to-back dates, and decided to set up a rooftop camera the week before Christmas.

“I had a hunch it was him,” Arnold-Jones tells SFR. “People tried to tell me it was the work of Democrats, but I knew that wasn’t the case. This isn’t the normal kind of political retribution you might expect. This is scary.”

The couple told police they’ve had 19 tires slashed in December. Three were repaired, but the rest had to be replaced. Together, they’ve spent $1,500 replacing Arnold-Jones’ Ford Expedition tires. Jones’ employer has spent another $2,200 replacing the tires on his Ford F-150 work truck.

…And she’s not alone.

At least four other Republican operatives have also complained about their tires being vandalized by Smith in the past six months.
