GRAFFITI ARTIST “DECORATES” TOWN (KINCARDINE, ON) – The South Bruce OPP has received four reports of graffiti in the Town of Kincardine during the overnight hours of Jan. 21-22. Inappropriate phrases and images were applied to an area of sidewalk along Russell Street and to the rear walls of three Queen Street businesses: Dar-Lyn Pools and Spas, Nine Waves and Bruce Telecom. Graffiti negatively impacts a community’s beautification. The removal or repair costs can be expensive, but it must be removed. Graffiti left unchallenged suggests a community that is apathetic about its appearance and most often leads to more graffiti being applied. When a person applies graffiti, he/she is committing a Criminal Code offence called Mischief, which carries a maximum sentence of 10 years in jail. SOUTH BRUCE OPP RESPOND TO SAFETY CONCERNS (BRUCE TWP, ON) – Jan. 22, at 7:08 p.m., the South Bruce OPP watched the intersection of Highway 21 and Bruce County Road 20, Bruce Township, due to reports that drivers weren’t stopping.
