A little dark-hearted Christmas vandalism…

Three local businesses were struck with graffiti early Friday morning. According to local RCMP Staff Sgt.. Kurt Grabinsky all three businesses are located in the 100 block of Second Avenue, East and West. All three had extensive paint, pen or glass etching damage on the glass windows. The material used is acidic, resulting in the need to replace the glass at each location in order to remove the writing. Photo courtesy of the Revelstoke RCMP
