What Graffiti Vandals Did To The Lennon Wall Mural ____________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________ Detroit Police call 5 charged with spraying  graffiti 'serial vandals' Jim Lynch The Detroit News 8/18/2014 Detroit  — Police Chief James Craig is using the recent arrest of five men charged with spraying graffiti on area buildings to send a message to taggers: Don’t do it here. The suspects were arrested on Aug. 14 just after 3 p.m. when police responded to a complaint of men spray-painting the abandoned Murdock’s Tire Doctor at the corner of Livernois and Burlingame. Each man now faces a felony charge of malicious destruction of property over $1,000. A sixth suspect is being sought. Craig noted Monday that three of the five suspects are not Detroit residents. If people are not willing to do the crime in their own back yard, he said, they shouldn’t view Detroit as the place to do it. “
