A string of graffiti vandalism cases in Hoquiam was cracked thanks to surveillance footage and sharp observation by local officers. Police say buildings, vehicles, and public restrooms were spray-painted in the same style across two locations on May 25. The next day, Officers Figg, Atwood, and Deason spotted two juveniles who matched the suspects caught on video and later confirmed their identities. Malicious Mischief charges have been forwarded to the prosecutor’s office, and police urge residents to report tagging incidents to the non-emergency line.
