Battlefords RCMP say several North Battleford businesses, residences and vehicles were damaged with graffiti late Tuesday and early Wednesday.
Black spray paint was used to create what police say are gang-related “tags.”
The police estimate the damage in the thousands of dollars.
Police are urging the public to contact the detachment if they have any information and to advise police if they have found anything left behind by the perpetrators that could hold physical evidence that may help identify them. If residents or business owners have security system video footage or photographs that may have captured the perpetrators, police ask that they contact the detachment so it can be viewed.
Police also ask that people be aware of other indicators of involvement that may assist this investigation, such as local businesses who may have sold the black spray paint in the recent past, or seeing persons with unexplained black paint on their hands or clothing.
Anyone with information about these or any other crime is urged to contact the Battlefords Detachment of the RCMP at 306-446-1720, Saskatchewan Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477), through SaskTel at *8477 or submit a tip online at www.saskcrimestoppers.com.
