Graffiti (Tagging)

By John Riddington

Recently there has been many instances of tagging in the area.  The advice of the police on this matter is that the tag should be painted over it as soon as possible, but that before doing this the tag should be photographed, with the photograph then being sent to the police. The photographs allow the incidences to be recorded and can apparently help with prosecutions.  The photographs can be sent to regency.team@sussex.pnn.police.uk or telephone 0845 6070999. The Council provides advise about graffiti at http://www.brighton-hove.gov.uk/index.cfm?request=c1110881#SubTitle1
