Vandal with moustache and beret sought after train graffiti damage
A moustached vandal wearing a white overcoat and blue beret is being sought by police after causing $7500 of graffiti damage to a train.
Investigators have released clear images of two men they wish to speak to following the act of vandalism which occurred late last year.
The train had been stopped temporarily for an hour from about 4pm between Mordialloc and Aspendale stations on September 11 last year when two men hopped a fence next to the train line.
They then used spray paint to graffiti the train, causing "extensive damage", before fleeing on foot.
A police spokeswoman said the estimated cost of the damage was $7500.
Investigators from the transit safety division have described one of the suspected offenders as Caucasian in appearance, aged between 25 and 30, with a medium-build, short wavy black hair, a moustache and a pale complexion.
He was wearing a blue beret, a white overcoat, a blue and white striped shirt and light blue tracksuit pants with white stripes at the time of the incident.
The second man is described as Caucasian in appearance, aged between 25 and 30, with a medium build and shoulder-length dark curly hair.
He was wearing a light-coloured wide-brim hat with orange band, a high-vis orange and blue shirt and light blue jeans.
