Police are searching for one man whose prolific message has been “Jesus Saves.” Police have information leading them to believe the vandal in that case is a man.

Several new examples were found Friday on the back of the Carlyle Building, which is being developed as condominiums. Some of the new painting was done on windows, which is easy to clean, Pierce said, but others were done on brick, which must be sandblasted. Some of the graffiti has been covered with gray paint until building owners or the city can clean it.

“It’s interesting that he is passing a religious message but using a criminal means to do it,” Pierce said.

Police believe the “Jesus Saves” vandal is from New York and they have a vague description of him, which includes a backpack filled with aerosol paint cans.Police are searching for one man whose prolific message has been “Jesus Saves.” Police have information leading them to believe the vandal in that case is a man.
