ANOTHER property in Susupe was vandalized over the weekend, according to Department of Public Safety said.
DPS spokeswoman Lei Ogumoro said that Jian Nan Ma, 54, on April 7, at 10:45 p.m., reported to the police that his residence in Susupe had been vandalized by unknown suspects.
The suspect or suspects used pink spray paint to paint the floor and wall of the front porch.
The owner told police that it was not the first time that his property had been vandalized.
The owner said his residence was first vandalized on April 5 and the suspect or suspects sprayed black graffiti on the walls.
Both of the incidents were reported to the police.
DPS said vandalism is considered criminal mischief which has a maximum penalty of six months imprisonment.
DPS is urging anyone having information about this or other crimes to call Crime Stoppers at 234-7272.
DPS is now working closely with the Beautify CNMI! to address the problem.
They will spearhead a campaign called “War on Graffiti” next month.
This may include designating a venue where the youth can “express their feelings” through painting and other artistic activities.
