Crime Stoppers of Grey Bruce is asking for the public’s help in solving an ongoing graffiti problem in the Town of Meaford.

Over the past few months someone has been scouring the Town of Meaford leaving their "markings" on structures by acts widely referred to as “tagging”.

The suspects are tagging areas such as back alleyways, backs of signs, and town mail boxes.

Rather than using the conventional can of spray paint these suspects are using either paint brushes or felt markers in differing colours.

The people responsible for these acts of graffiti are in fact committing the criminal offence of mischief and the resulting clean up can become a significant burden on a municipal budget.

If you have information about these crimes you can call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS or submit a secure Web Tip.  You won’t be asked to identify yourself, you won’t have to appear in court, and you may be eligible for a cash reward up to $2,000.00.
