TWO teenagers are believed to be linked to a graffiti spree which saw Nazi symbols and offensive language spray painted on cars and property in the Wangaratta area last week.
A number of residents along Mather Street and Murdoch Road awoke on Friday morning to find their property, which included cars, fences and letterboxes in some instances, had been graffitied with orange paint.
Detective Sergeant Chris Hill of Wangaratta Crime Investigation Unit confirmed a 16–year–old female and a 17–year–old male had been arrested and interviewed in the wake of the offending, and had been released pending summons.
He said charges were yet to be formally laid.
A number of council bins were also vandalised during the alleged offending, while a swastika was painted out the front of a nearby Greek Orthodox church.

Police had previously stated they believed the offending had been random in nature.
