(as you do). Saw a woman particularly close and then looked like she was pretending to use the car for support whilst walking. She continued to "fake" this excuse on the next few cars. Obviously I walked back. 3 deep scratches on rear panel, door, and front wing. 
I went into kick-arse mode. To cut a long story short, confronted the witch, didn't get anywhere, then called cops. When they finished questioning her we were taking a look at the damage and she done 3 or 4 other cars as well. WTF?! Okay so damage done, and I can't physically punish her for her crimes (oh I'd very much like to!!). Cops said I can claim under vandalism on insurance. They sending me a crime ref. so will support my claim. My question is, will it be classed as a claim? I've not had an accident so it shouldn't increase my premiums? Or will it? I'm trying to find my paperwork, but can't find whether it will cost me my excess? Or whether its completely covered and at no cost to me?
Any help and past experience (as painful as it might be) much appreciated
