Tyrolean (20) charged

Caught by police: perpetrator graffitied election poster

During election campaigns, they are a popular target for vandals. We are talking about the posters of various parties. In the Tyrolean capital on Saturday night, a graffiti artist (20) was caught red-handed - by the police.

The vandal struck under cover of darkness at around 3.40 am. He targeted an election poster in Kärntnerstraße in Innsbruck. Bad luck for the perpetrator: "He was caught red-handed by police officers from the Reichenau police station while smearing the poster," said the officers. 

The vandal will be reported to the public prosecutor's office at large.
