The Local Police of Torrejón de Ardoz has reported eight individuals, some of whom are repeat offenders and minors, for graffiti in various areas of the municipality, seizing materials and registering 'signatures' for future charges.

In recent months, the Local Police of Torrejón de Ardoz has intensified its actions against graffiti in public spaces, leading to the reporting of eight individuals. Officers have seized a significant amount of material, including spray cans and other tools, allegedly used for graffiti on commercial premises, apartment blocks, train carriages, and other urban areas.
The City Council has reported that several of those involved were caught in the act. The Local Police maintains a record of the graffiti, which allows them to link patterns of size and color to repeat offenders, thus facilitating the imputation of various acts of vandalism.
Among the notable cases, police intervention in a residential area, alerted by a neighbor, led to the identification and reporting of several individuals, one of whom was a minor, whose parents were notified. In another operation in the Soto del Henares neighborhood, three men were caught with 14 spray cans and confirmed to be repeat offenders.
Additionally, the Local Police reported two young people for painting train carriages near the RENFE station in Torrejón, and two other minors who were caught painting a delivery van, with their guardians being informed. In all these incidents, administrative complaints have been processed to claim damages and cleaning costs for vandalized urban furniture.
