Graffiti offender sought in Mission

Mission RCMP are asking for the public’s assistance in identifying a male who is believed to be responsible for a large amount of graffiti that was recently done in Mission.

Numerous businesses in downtown Mission notified police after their buildings were spray-painted overnight on the night of September 24-25. At least six businesses were vandalized with black spray paint. CCTV footage captured the man believed to be responsible, and police have not yet been able to identify him. Mission RCMP are now releasing his photo, with the hopes that someone may recognize him. If you can help to identify this individual, please call 604-826-7161, file 25-12189.

Mission RCMP encourage any property owners who have their buildings or other property vandalized by spray-paint or by other means, to report it to police. Even if there is no CCTV footage or direct evidence of the vandalism to your property, police may be able to link it to other offences committed around the same time or in the same area, and it’s possible that there may be CCTV or forensic evidence at one of those locations. Police also encourage property owners to clean off or paint over any graffiti, as this often discourages the offender – or other offenders – from targeting your property again. However, please only do so after police have attended or a photo has been taken, as confirming any symbols within the graffiti can be very helpful in linking it to other instances of vandalism, and ultimately to the offender. Graffiti may not seem like a serious crime, but it can have a significant impact on the overall sense of safety and security people have in our community.

is not a new thing. Check out yesterday’s post from the Mission Community Archives, of a newspaper article, circa 1962. Although the term has a slightly different meaning, the sentiment is the same, shop in your home community, in our local shops. For pretty much all the same reasons today as it was then, pays huge dividends in our own local community; the City of Mission.

HISTORICAL TRIVIALITIES
Mission’s “Main Street” - 1962

The posted photograph of First Avenue – just west of Grand Street – was used in a 1962 advertisement to promote “SHOP AT HOME….” It was sponsored by the Fraser Valley Record “YOUR HOMETOWN NEWSPAPER”

The ad read as follows: “….get an EXTRA BONUS for yourself with every dollar you spend. SHOP at-home dollars help stimulate trade and employment locally…help provide the taxes and contributions that maintain and improve our schools, streets, parks, hospitals, churches and other services that make this a good place to live!...Money spent out of town helps to build up somebody else’s community. Money spent at home helps to build up YOUR Community! (SOURCE: Fraser Valley February 21, 1962).
