GIZMO vandalism in Petrolia continues
April 16, 2020
Crime Stoppers is asking people to keep their eyes open as vandals spray paint GIZMO on buildings in Petrolia
Municipal buildings and privately owned buildings are being targetted since early this spring. Lambton OPP say the same pattern and design are spray painted all over town on at least 10 buildings..
Crime Stoppers officials say victims of these crimes are stuck with either leaving the unsightly graffiti on the walls or repainting the entire area. Removal is not usually an option. Either way, the costs add up for these businesses – most of who are just barely hanging on as it is, officials added.
Crime Stoppers is asking you to keep your eyes open and report what you see at either www.p3tips.com to submit your tip online or call 1-800-222-TIPS(8477).
