Eco-zealots are slashing tires on SUVs across the globe in an effort to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
The Tire Extinguishers movement, which started in the United Kingdom, has spread to the United States and leaders promised to 'expand massively' in the coming weeks.
New York City was hard hit by the group last month, when the tires of approximately 40 SUVs were deflated on the Upper East Side.
Residents in Chicago, San Francisco, and Scranton, Pennsylvania, were also targeted by the climate activists.
The group is most prominent across the UK and Europe, where activists have allegedly slashed more than 5,000 tires since the movement launched in March.
