Two teenage boys have been charged with vandalism after a frenzy of graffiti spraying around Deal.

They are due to appear before magistrates at Folkestone today (Tuesday) when the court will be told the owners of the properties faced hundreds of pounds worth of bills after the damage.

Fences, public buildings, a gas van, a coach and a block of garages were all tagged, showing sprayed signatures and logos.

The 14-year-old youth has been charged with nine offences and has had 13 taken into consideration. Charged with him was a 15-year-old boy who had three charges and two further offences taken into consideration.
