Graffiti vandalism is on the rise in Aberdeen and Hoquiam, and police are asking for your help in identifying those responsible. Residents are urged to call 911 if they witness tagging in progress and to provide descriptions of suspects or vehicles involved. Crime Watch volunteers continue documenting the growing damage, which city leaders say is costly and damaging to the community. Officials also remind parents that Hoquiam’s curfew law makes them liable if their children are out unsupervised between midnight and 5 a.m.
