Just before 7 p.m. a neighbor caught the man while he sprayed all kinds of groceries on the walls and windows of the town hall with red graffiti. With the message ‘Don’t act like you don’t know, Bert? 550 days ago. Help, 550 Days’, the man seems to be focusing mainly against the previous mayor Bert Maertens, but he has no idea what this is about. The current city council also has the guessing to the intentions of the man.
When he was caught, the thirties fled away, but the police could eventually pick him up for interrogation. According to the police, the man came across as confused in his arrest. The man has since been interrogated and released again. His case will be dealt with via fast rights.
All graffiti has since been removed.
