Vandals tag construction sign in west Evanston
Vandals tagged an orange construction flag in west Evanston on Saturday evening, police said.
The graffiti, on a sign in the 2900 block of Payne Street, was not gang-related, Parrott said. He added when the graffiti is a simple tag — like the spraying of one word — the vandals are generally teenagers.
