Business owners’ anger over graffiti daubed on town walls

There was anger in Arbroath yesterday following a graffiti spree in the town’s John Street West.

A name was sprayed in huge writing on walls on both sides of the road near to Aberbrothock Coachworks.

The incident was reported to police and local business owners have condemned the “eyesore” vandalism.

Councillor David Fairweather said graffiti in Arbroath “looks like it might be getting out of hand”.

Police were informed of the incident, which is thought to have happened over the weekend.
