Four people have been arrested in Exeter overnight, after 66 sites around the city centre were graffitied.
Police were called just before midnight to Exeter Quay following reports of a group stealing from a shop.
Officers arrived and found the group spray-painting. They fled the scene, but were found a short time later.
Two 19-year-old men were arrested on suspicion of criminal damage, whilst two 17-year-old males were arrested on suspicion of criminal damage and possession of drugs.
A further search found 66 tags had been painted in the city centre and quay areas and enquiries are ongoing.
Anyone who believes that their property may have been targeted overnight is asked to contact police online here.
