Spartanburg’s Westside Gets Hit By Gang Graffiti

Graffiti everywhere!

Police and mall officials say vandals spray painted all over the westside of Spartanburg between late Monday night and early Tuesday morning.

Westgate Mall tells us vandals painted graffiti at Westgate Crossing. Public Safety reports say the graffiti appears to be related to latino gangs.

Police are now looking at security video to see if they can identify who did it.

Rob Thomas, with Westgate Mall said, “There is some possibility the individual who did this had someone who was watching for them, using a radio, to notify security was in the area so they would move out.“

Most of the mall mess has been cleaned up, but there is still some writing that needs to be removed. The rainy weather did not help in those efforts.

First Baptist Church Fairforest, also saw their sign covered in a gang sign.
