Graffiti bust

Police arrested a Pierrefonds teen who allegedly left 400 “tags” of graffiti across the West Island. On June 13 at about 10 p.m., Station 3 police received a call from a citizen who saw somebody lurking behind a store on St. Charles Boulevard, Const. Dan Maheu said.

When officers arrived at the scene they saw a teen speed off on a bicycle. Police caught up with the suspect and searched his backpack. Inside, Maheu said they found a can of spray paint and attachments to change the stream for different variations of tags. The 17-year-old was arrested for mischief and admitted to leaving hundreds of tags in the region, Maheu said. “He was really active,” he said. “It was a good arrest for us. It will be the end of that (particular) graffiti in Pierrefonds.
