Posted: July 28th, 2010 12:13 PM
Like most LE agencies in the metropolitan area Oregon City Police Officers respond to numerous graffiti / tagging calls per week. Officers respond to the calls for service, document and photograph the incident, but often have no leads or suspect information.
On 7/20/10 around 1315 hours OCPD Officer Steve Brown was able to identify and arrest Oregon City resident, 19 year old Matthew Hollenbeck who is responsible for numerous cases of graffiti (Criminal Mischief II ORS 164.354)within Oregon city. 13 multiple colored spray paint cans were seized from Hollenbeck at the time of his arrest.
Hollenbeck's tagging name is "ACE". Hollenbeck littered Oregon City with his tagging of "ACE" in multiple colors. During the investigation Hollenbeck told Officer Brown he was sorry for all the graffiti, it got out of control and he knew it would catch up to him.
Officer Brown's investigation is continuing due to others that have tagging with or had tagging wars with Hollenbeck.
