Henrico Police arrested and charged a 68-year-old man they believe went on an early morning rampage in Lakeside, smashing garage doors at three separate buildings, including a fire station and rescue squad.

The suspect, Lawrence S. Ingraham, faces three counts of felony vandalism, one for each location.

According to police, the first incident occurred when a Honda Odyssey struck the garage doors of Henrico Fire Station No. 5 in the 6900 block of Lakeside Avenue early Tuesday morning.

They found an additional garage door significantly damaged at a nearby business. Then, the suspect allegedly parked outside of the bay doors of the nearby Lakeside Volunteer Rescue Squad and broke out all of the windows within the garage doors and the glass out of the building’s doorway.

The suspect fled the scene on foot, leaving the vehicle before police arrived. Detectives later identified him as Ingraham.

He is being held at the Henrico County Sheriff's Office without bond.

No injuries were reported as a result of the three incidents, Henrico Police Lt. Matt Pecka said.
