D’oh – Writer Scribes Window While Dozens of Cops Watch

D’oh – Writer Scribes Window While Dozens of Cops Watch

Joshua Vasquez probably thought nothing of the non-descript, tinted window he was scribing on at the Commerce Aquatic Center. Unfortunately, on the other side of the darkened glass, 100 law enforcement officials were attending a training class and watching his every move.

Officers first thought Vasquez was stopping to wave hello while a sheriff’s captain was holding a lecture on “the importance of having backup when engaged in foot pursuits.”

But once Vasquez opened the door to get up on the inside, he looked up in horror as dozens of cops started rising up from their chairs to confront him.

Vasquez turned and made a run for it with about 40 cops on his tail for about a block until he stumbled, fell, and was quickly manhandled into submission. After being placed in a squad car, the 6′4″, 280 lb writer made a token attempt at escape by kicking out a rear window. Commendable but ultimately futile.

He was booked on suspicion of felony vandalism and locked up. Bail has been set at $20,000.

Sheriff Captain Mike Parker said that “Looking at the door later on, it turns out we could see him, but he couldn’t see us,” Parker said. “It would appear he picked the wrong room to vandalize.”

L.A. County sheriff’s deputies arrest 73-year-old tagging suspect

Calling him the oldest tagging suspect they have ever captured, Los Angeles County sheriff’s deputies arrested a 73-year-old Los Angeles man for allegedly putting “slap tags” on the inside of Metropolitan Transportation Authority buses.

For the last seven months, deputies assigned to the Special Problems Unit of the Sheriff’s Transit Bureau have been trying to determine the identity of an “older” vandal who had been placing orange and black “Who Is John Scott?” stickers on buses in Baldwin Hills and other areas concentrated on the Westside of Los Angeles.

Deputies involved in a saturation patrol this morning at the downtown 7th and Metro Center subway station encountered the septuagenarian suspect, later identified as 73-year-old John Scott of Los Angeles, as he was putting slap tags in one of the main stairwells at the transit hub.

“Up until this year, the oldest guy we had arrested was 36,” said sheriff’s Lt. Erik Ruble. “We knew our guy was older, but not [73].” [Updated at 7:34 p.m.: An earlier version of this post said Scott was 74. Scott, who was booked on suspicion of felony vandalism, will be 74 next month.]

Ruble said Scott was caught with stickers in his pockets as well as a black brief case, which appears to be similar to a case that is pictured on the whoisjohnscott.com website.

Investigators said they were not sure how long Scott had been vandalizing buses or the particulars of his life story. But Ruble said deputies believe Scott was driven to tag by the same motivation as his younger cohorts: “fame and notoriety.”

“It just goes to show, the graffiti culture in Los Angeles is not age-specific and is very diverse,” Ruble said.

Seven months ago, deputies began noticing “Who Is John Scott?” stickers being placed on light poles, bus benches and even on the seats of the MTA buses themselves. Ruble said many of the stickers are hard to get to and required dismantling equipment to remove.

With a little research they found that their vandal had created a website selling the mystery of his identity as well as T-shirts, baseball caps and the slap tags.

“Who am I? John Scott — world traveler, entrepreneur, producer, but, above all, mystery — an ordinary man with an extraordinary idea of himself,” read a description above a picture of a man dressed in black, his face hidden and a question mark over it. “A real person with a real history, he is also you and me, the face in the window, the voice on the bus.”

“The mystery exists no more,” Ruble said.
