The city of Minneapolis has a new reward program that pays up to $500 for graffiti reports that lead to convictions. Here’s how it works:
How to qualify for the Stop Graffiti Now! Reward Program
- If you see a vandal applying graffiti to a home or a business—call 911
- Provide your name and contact information to police
- If possible, take a picture of the vandal in action (Do not make contact with the vandal—just call 911)
- Complete a Graffiti Reward Program Claim Form and submit
- If your call leads to a conviction, you could receive up to $500
Hypothetically, I wonder what would happen if someone was to buy a deer camera on eBay, place it near a popular graffiti zone, and then turn in the photos of the taggers they caught on tape? How long would it take to get a positive return on that camera investment?

Considering I got my car tagged this week, I’ve considered it. I dig the camera used here, although it’s about $350.
That sucks about your car.
Infrared camera, eh? Good call. While pricier, it should still pay for itself in one conviction reward.
You have to submit a claim form? Seems like a lot of work for a dubious chance of reward.
If you see a vandal applying graffiti to a home or a business — That’s an important distinction. I’m glad they made it.
