The images were captured by the council's cameras in Canterbury high street between 10.46pm and 11pm last Wednesday.

A graffiti tag was sprayed on black boarding outside the closed down Jigsaw shop, which shut for good last year.

Those who may have information that can help the council should email graffiti@canterbury.gov.uk.

The authority says a £500 reward could be up for grabs.

The inducement was introduced by the council in 2019 in an effort to aid its crackdown on graffiti which costs the taxpayer thousands of pounds to clear up.
