New Graffiti Incident in Ashburn

A new case of graffiti in Ashburn this week may not be related to a string of vandalism incidents that have alarmed residents in the past few weeks, according to the Loudoun County Sheriff’s Office.

The latest incident happened overnight early Tuesday in the area of Ryan Road and Vickery Park Drive.

Graffiti was found spray painted on several rocks in the area. The LCSO says there is no indication this incident is related to other cases of vandalism in the area.

Since July, there have been 17 reported cases of graffiti that are possibly linked. Recent cases have included language that disparages the Hindu culture.

Earlier this month, nearly 200 residents packed a community forum on the issue and there is a $1,000 cash reward for information that leads to an arrest in those incidents.
