RNC launches graffiti tip line

To combat the growing amounts of graffiti on the Northeast Avalon, the RNC has established a tip line as another means of identifying and locating those responsible.

The crimes are most common at night and in areas often accessible only on foot.

The tip line will allow the public to provide the RNC with the names of taggers, new pieces of graffiti and locations, or any other information that could lead investigators to the persons responsible.

The RNC has received reports of tagging on small businesses, residential properties, public property, memorial sites, municipal structures, and signage, all of which have been damaged or destroyed by spray paint.

The General Investigation Unit can be reached directly at 709-729-8800. Reports of crimes in progress should be made by calling 911.
