Hernandez said officers are currently trying to find whoever did it, but was concerned that the community of Flagstaff might see more mass tagging in the near future. A person who is caught committing graffiti can be fined up to $1,000, but it is "up to the prosecutor" to determine whether to charge the multiple cases of graffiti as one charge which could be a felony and cost $5,000, Hernandez said. Some individual citizens had cars that were tagged, Hernandez said. The tagger also sprayed over some parking meters downtown, covering up the customer interface screens. Also, some people’s cars were also vandalized.
