Police say they’ve identified two teenagers they believe are responsible for graffiti in Yarmouth.

Police responded to a call on Talbot Road over the weekend after someone had spray-painted a racial slur, the word “Trump” and a lewd drawing on the road.

More incidents in Yarmouth and Freeport were reported Tuesday night involving eggs and spray paint. Police believe they’re connected. The three suspects connected to those incidents, two 16 year-olds and one 17-year-old, are not from Yarmouth.

Police believe at least two of those three may be responsible for the incident over the weekend.
