Graffiti Update

The Boise police graffiti unit took pictures of the damage to compare with other incidents. One officer said that the tags on the building were known to them. If they know the person they aren't sharing the information with anyone.

I've also been unable to confirm a report that a juvenile was arrested in early June and confessed to tagging the water tank, the abandoned mill building by the dam and possibly HR property. All details are unavailable due to the age of the person.

It should be only a matter of time before we have an ID on the videotaped tagger and can press charges.

After the taggers start using wash-off paint I'll agree that graffiti is an example of creative artistic expression. Till then it's vandalism.
