ST. CATHARINES (Jul 24, 2008)

Niagara police have added more charges to the list facing a 20-year-old man alleged to be behind numerous tags saying "Get Loose."

The man, who was arrested May 29 and charged in connection with three incidents of graffiti, was arrested again Tuesday.

Police said the initial investigation resulted in further evidence linking the man to four other paint jobs in St. Catharines in 2006 and 2007.

A Niagara police spokesperson said the service takes a serious stand on graffiti, with detectives in St. Catharines maintaining a computer database of photographs and suspect information.
