A Madison man admitted Wednesday morning to defacing four buildings with obscenities in orange and hot pink spray paint near Mifflin and East Dayton streets.
Madison police arrested 20-year-old Paul Jones after he spray painted profanities on a home on the 900 block of East Mifflin Street, according to Madison Police Department spokesperson Joel DeSpain.
Police said officers were able to identify Jones by his cell phone the East Mifflin Street resident found and turned in to police.
After denying the charges, he eventually admitted to the property damage on East Mifflin Street, according to DeSpain. Police said Jones also admitted to spray painting a stone wall at Breese Stevens stadium, a home on the 800 block of East Dayton Street and a large warehouse building on the corner of Livingston and East Dayton streets.
Although police arrested Jones, he was cited and released for damaging property, according to DeSpain.
