Police eye Swampscott man in tire slashings

SWAMPSCOTT — A notorious tire slasher may now be in police custody.

Mounir Rhoulam, 39, of Swampscott was arrested on charges of trespassing, resisting arrest and disorderly conduct after an early morning foot chase last month by Lynn and Swampscott police.

Following his arrest, police discovered that Rhoulam was already on probation, according to an email from the Swampscott department.

A GPS ankle bracelet put him in the area of five alleged assaults against women near Beach Avenue and Essex Street on the Lynn-Swampscott line, in addition to others in Marblehead and Salem.

Police also believe Rhoulam was in the area of a rash of tire slashings that began in October and ended in January.

A total of 32 people reported their tires slashed in Swampscott alone. There have been no tire slashing incidents in the area since Rhoulam’s arrest Jan. 9.  

Rhoulam has been charged with 22 counts of malicious destruction under $250 and 11 counts of malicious destruction over $250. He is due in Lynn District Court on Feb. 15.
