WESTFIELD – A recent spate of graffiti “bombs” have taken place in the city near the Great River Bridge, targeting recently painted buildings.
In graffiti lingo, to “bomb” an area is to spray a design on as many buildings or surfaces as possible, and is generally done quickly to avoid being caught by authorities.
The Westfield Detective Bureau has posted to their Facebook page seven photographs of the designs, which were done in multiple colors on several buildings.
The Facebook post, which went up late last night advises anyone with information about the person or people responsible for the vandalism to contact Sgt. Eric Hall of the city’s Community Police Unit via phone at (413) 642-9383. The post added that the name of anyone who assists authorities in the investigation will not be used.
