Nebraska Police Arrest ‘Butt Bandit’ Vandalism Suspect
Friday, November 21, 2008
VALENTINE — Authorities said they’ve arrested a suspect in the rash of
so-called “Butt Bandit” vandalism cases.
County Attorney Eric Scott said a 35-year-old man was arrested early
Wednesday morning. Formal charges have not yet been filed. Some vandal
had been skipping from one building to another at night, pressing his
naked buttocks, groin or both on windows.
Store owners, church workers and school janitors have had to wash
lotion and petroleum jelly off the windows he selects.
Local residents found some humor in the strange brand of graffiti and
had dubbed the vandal the “Butt Bandit.”
Valentine Police Chief Ben McBride called it “the weirdest case I’ve
ever seen.”
