A council is offering a free MP3 player and £100 in a bid to catch graffiti vandals.
Lewes District Council's clean and green team have undertaken a cleaning blitz to remove graffiti across the town of Lewes.
Now, in association with Currys digital in Lewes, the team is offering a new generation iPod Nano and £100 cash as a reward to anyone who can give information leading to the arrest and charge of the vandals whose 'tags' cost time and money to clear up.
Councillor David Gray, Lewes council's member for community and the chair of the crime reduction partnership, said: "The council is determined to minimise the impact of graffiti across the district.
"We will do this by undertaking regular targeted clean up with our clean and green team. However it would be better to prevent graffiti from happening in the first place.
"This is why we are offering £100 to anyone providing information leading to the arrest and charge of those responsible."
Anyone who has information about graffiti should call police on 0845 6070999 or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555111.
