A man has been charged with damaging traffic cameras that record number plates to check whether the vehicles need to be charged for entering London’s Ultra Low Emission Zone (ULEZ).

It comes after activists—who were dubbed “ULEZ Blade Runners”—were reportedly targeting the cameras ahead of the controversial ULEZ expansion to the whole of the Greater London area in August.
