Digital Camera Picture Causes Incarceration

Just archiving an interesting news piece. Carry on.

The graffiti tagger “RESF” was apprehended by the PBP Graffiti Task Force at Brashear High School and charged with 5 counts of Graffiti Vandalism.

Police say the suspect was originally wanted for numerous counts of graffiti vandalism in the Brookline area of the City.

He was allegedly caught in the act of defacing a wall in November by a vigilant citizen who snapped a picture with a digital camera of him.

With the help of citizens of Pittsburgh, Graffiti Task Force was able to obtain information and apprehend the juvenile without incident.

Police believe the juvenile may also be responsible for tagging in the Dormont Area of the City.

That incident is currently under investigation with the Dormont Police Department.
