One important thing to remember with any act of vandalism is to leave your vehicle the way it is until the law enforcement officer and/or our appraiser have the opportunity to inspect your car. Make sure you notify the police immediately, so that they can issue a police report documenting the damage to your car. This would also assists local authorities keep track of vandalism in a given area, which helps them do more to protect you and your community in the future with such act in Nebraska. With some insurance companies, generally, as soon as possible after contacting the police, report the incident by using online car insurance claims. It would also be useful if you have a camera with you when you discover the vandalism so you can take photos of the damage.
