BROOKS, AB – A spree of graffiti incidents over the past several days has caught the attention of RCMP in Brooks.

Brooks Mounties say they received a complaint about graffiti on the outside walls of a dance studio located in the 600 block of First Street West on Jan. 9 and a complaint about similar graffiti at the Sutherland Drive 7-Eleven the next day.

Investigation revealed several other locations throughout the city had also been spray-painted, including recreational areas and on private property.

All the graffiti was similar in nature and made reference to the USA, CIA, feminine hygiene products and animals, say RCMP.
