The police were contacted by representatives of two companies that rent electric scooters in Moscow. Unknown persons have stained about 400 vehicles belonging to these companies with grease.

The incident took place last Thursday, August 26th. Electric scooters were parked on Krymsky Val and Leninsky Prospekt.

On this fact, the police began to check, the Moscow department of the Ministry of Internal Affairs told the agency "Moskva".

Now companies are calculating the damage from these hooligan actions.

Earlier, in the central cities of the Russian Federation, where electric scooters are rented out, cases of collisions with children and pedestrians have become more frequent. In particular, cases on the provision of unsafe services were opened against companies in St. Petersburg, Rostov-on-Don, Sochi and Moscow. In one of the accidents in St. Petersburg a four year old child suffered. In Rostov-on-Don, a local resident ran into a two-year-old child.

After the increased incidence of collisions with pedestrians, the authorities proposed to limit the speed of movement on electric scooters on crowded streets and in parks. The Moscow City Duma deputies even suggested that blacklists of violators traffic rules, which will henceforth be prohibited from renting electric scooters.
