A vandal or vandals spray painted graffiti on the walls of several businesses May 11 or 12 at shopping centers on the East Hill of Kent.
The incident occurred overnight between May 11 and May 12 at the Carriage Square and East Hill shopping complexes in the 10200 block of Southeast 258th Street, said Kent Police Sgt. Pat Lowery.
“Several buildings in the area were vandalized as well as two parked cars,” Lowery said in an e-mail. “Several different tags were identified by our investigating officer, which would lead us to believe that there was more than one person doing the damage.”
Lowery said there was nothing in the tagging to associate the graffiti with any gangs.
Police recovered four empty spray paint cans. Officers dusted the cans for fingerprints, but did not find any prints.
Lowery said there were no witnesses to the incident, so the investigation has reached a dead end.
