Since the beginning of March, someone has been spray-painting graffiti in spots all over the Town of Kingsville, and the Ontario Provincial Police are taking it very seriously.
"Graffiti is not art. It is mischief," read a release from police Wednesday morning. "Mischief is the willful destruction and damage of property. It is a Criminal Code offence and may be punishable by a prison term of up to ten years."
