Vandals Spray Blue Paint Across Portsmouth War Memorial and Queen Victoria Statue

Disgraceful vandals targeted Portsmouth’s War Memorial in Guildhall Square, spraying blue paint right into the eyes of the stone troops. But they didn’t stop there – the same royal statue of Queen Victoria was daubed with identical blue paint, leaving a massive clue behind.

‘DMX’ Tag Gives Police Lead

The yobbers struck in the early hours of Monday morning. Alongside their reckless attack on the war memorial, they tagged the plinth of Queen Victoria’s statue with the name ‘DMX’ – the same vivid blue spray paint making the smears impossible to miss.

Call to Action: Help Catch the Culprits

Police are urging anyone who knows who ‘DMX’ is or has info about the vandals to get in touch immediately. Dial 101 and help bring these disrespectful hoodlums to justice.
