Durkee previously had been suspected of the crimes, and recently discovered postings on his MySpace account provided sufficient proof for a warrant to be issued for his arrest.

He was picked up Aug. 26 while on Main Street and charged with 30 counts of graffiti and 30 counts of possession of a graffiti implement. After an initial court appearance, he was released upon posting a $3,000 secured bond.

The Newark Police Department release is available online.
