    Put a BB in the valve stem cap. It’s non-destructive, but will still result in a flat tire. If you super glue the BB, they might end up with several flats before they realize.

      I had a tool in highschool that took the valve out of the stem I borrowed from my dads mechanic shop that I put to good use. If there’s a hell I’m probably headed there

        The great thing about the BB is that it just lets the air out. All of the other methods are straight up destruction of property, and that’s not a fun charge to catch when that property belongs to law enforcement.

          The trick is not to just remove the stem. That’s noticable and will be immediately fixed. Instead, just loosen it a turns. It causes a slow leak they will keep pumping the tire and get the tire itself looked at before they realize their mistake.
