Delta police are hoping the public tips can aid in their investigation of a recent spate of graffiti in Ladner.

According to police since June 7 there have been a number of instances of spray-painted graffiti, targeting buildings, vehicles, parks and public washrooms in Ladner.

“This amounts to thousands of dollars in damages, not to mention city and police time spent painting over damaged surfaces, or investigating,” said DPD spokesperson Cris Leykauf.

The word ‘Dune’ was spray-painted on surfaces in each of the cases, she confirms.

Reports started to come into police June 7 about spray-paint at Memorial Park, and also along the 4800 block of Chisholm St., where four vans were targeted.

On June 24 there were further reports of spray-painting damage, this time at Ladner Harbour Park, within the men’s washroom.

Anyone who may have information about these crimes are asked to contact DPD at 604-946-4411 and ask for Const. Cam Wilson, quoting file 12056. Alternatively if you wish to remain anonymous you can make a report to Crimestoppers at 1-800-222-8477 or report your information online to https://www.solvecrime.ca/.
