Graffiti on Regina's cenotaph removed

For the second time in nearly the last three months, the cenotaph in Victoria Park was vandalized.

A word was spray painted in dark colouring on the war memorial. Crews were cleaning it up Wednesday morning, pressure washing it off.

The city has previously said it responds to about one to two incidents annually. Policy states graffiti is removed within 72 hours on high profile assets and within 24 hours if the graffiti is hateful or obscene.

In this case the vandalism would likely have been classified as obscene.

This follows an incident in May where somebody left blue wording on the cenotaph.
