Officers are no longer looking for two men wanted in connection with an incident on the A127 on January 13.
A 30-year-old man from Benfleet was arrested on Tuesday 16 April on suspicion of criminal damage and released under investigation while police enquiries continue.
A second man has also been identified and enquiries are ongoing.
An Essex Police spokesman said: "Thank you to members of the public who came forward following our appeal."
