One graffiti artists went to great lengths to spray paint the starboard beacon near the Johnson Street Bridge.
But little did he know, he was being watched.
In a Facebook post on Friday morning, Greater Victoria Crime Stoppers addressed the man who committed the crime and was on his way back to shore when he unknowingly flashed a smile at the camera that was pointed right at him.
After seeing the image, Crime Stoppers penned a hilariously sassy letter to the suspect.
