That's from a nail or screw. You can see the indentation of the head around the hole.

Vandalism is on the sidewall with an ice pick because it ruins the tire and can be done quickly... or so I've heard...

Most places offer road hazard protection with new tires. You damage the tires within certain mileage limits and they replace (either for free or for a small deductible)....
