Steve Martin with the Stanton public works dept. paints over a graffiti covered cinder block wall in Stanton as Orange County law enforcement officials unveiled a graffiti tracking system that employs a cell phone outfitted with a camera and GPS to enter graffiti into a database before it is painted over. The information helps law enforcement officials document and link multiple tags to the same person by comparing them by moniker, tagging crew, location and date.
