Downtown Businesses Hit with Vandalism

Someone with a black marker and a bright red one vandalized doors, walls and windows of various businesses through much of downtown New Canaan on Monday Dec. 1.

Police say they first received a call about the graffiti at 9:11 p.m. from a 51-year-old New Canaan man who noticed vandalism on Elm and Park streets — at doors for numbers 66, 76 and 86 Elm. Unintelligible graffiti tags were put on doors or buildings for Starbucks and Radio Shack.

More graffiti of the same type was found on a white fence of Rockwell Gallery on Burdis Avenue; graffiti marred a window and door at 11 Burdis Ave.
