Lakeport Police Sgt. Kevin Odom reported Thursday that over the past week, several cases of vandalism have been reported in the city.
He said vandals have written graffiti, which is possibly gang-related, in the 1000 block of N. Main Street, the 600 block of Forbes Street, the 400 block of Konocti Avenue, the 300 block of Lakeport Boulevard and the 1100 block of S. Main Street during the nighttime hours of Dec. 10 and Dec. 11.
Similar graffiti also was reported in the 100 block of Forbes Street and 300 block of S. Main Street on or around Dec. 12 and Dec. 13 during the night, Odom said.
He said the vandals appear to be using some type of large marking pen or similar device.
The vandalisms appear to be similar in style and design, Odom added.
Police had previously taken reports for six graffiti tagging incidents from Nov. 27 through the end of the first week in December, as Lake County News has reported.
Those earlier vandalisms had been reported in Library Park, on S. Forbes Street, N. Main Street and Park Street, police said.
Residents seeing any suspicious activity are encouraged to report it to the police department immediately at 707-263-5491. If an actual crime is in progress, please call 911.
Odom said the police department thanked the community members who have been victims of these vandalisms for their prompt cleanup efforts
