An off-duty Valletta police constable yesterday went beyond the call of duty and intervened to stop a vandal damaging a car in Tarxien. The constable was driving down Napuljun Caruana Dingli street, Tarxien at around 10.35am when the driver of the car in front of him stopped his vehicle, got out of the car and started damaging a parked Toyota Vitz. Sources told the Times of Malta that the car allegedly belonged to the vandal's ex-girlfriend. The off-duty constable immediately ordered the man to stop what he was doing, only to find himself entangled in a scuffle after the vandal turned his fists on him. "He was off-duty with his family but still intervened," a source said, "and he managed to hold the man off until other police officers arrived." Members of the police's rapid intervention unit subsequently arrested the man, a 26-year-old from Birżebbuġa.
