WILTON — Police are researching graffiti drawings left last week on Depot Street buildings to see if they are possibly gang-related, Police Chief Dennis Brown said Monday.
“They are not your typical teenage-type graffiti,” he said.
Brown was making regular nightly checks when he drove in back of the vacant Forster building at 516 Depot St. at about 10:30 p.m. Wednesday night and noticed the vandalism on doors of the mill building and a small wooden building behind the mill and a large metal adjacent building, he said.
“The painted drawings were still wet. We must have just missed them,” he said.
Tracks in the snow led up to painted garage doors on the back of the large building and a lock had been cut off in an attempt to enter but the entry was unsuccessful, he said.
The next night, Thursday, a garage door at nearby Taylor Made Homes, also on Depot Street, received some graffiti markings although not as much but the person(s) had to jump the high fence surrounding the property, he said. No other damage was done within the fenced-in business area.
