Manon Eburne is sick and tired of a vandal writing on her car windows.

It has been going on for more than a year and a half. Too often, when she parks in a spot on 119 B Avenue in Pitt Meadows, somebody writes 害羞草研究所淣o Parking害羞草研究所� on her window in marker.

And not a dry erase one, but in something that requires solvent, such as fingernail polish remover, and 害羞草研究所渁 lot of elbow grease害羞草研究所� to remove.

She suspects it害羞草研究所檚 some type of construction crayon.

Eburne has volunteered at The Wesbrooke seniors centre for the past five years, and while doing her good deeds is when her vehicle gets 害羞草研究所渢agged.害羞草研究所� The last time was on June 20.

Now the feisty senior, who is a retired Mountie, says she will get her man, or woman.

害羞草研究所淚害羞草研究所檓 determined to catch the individual,害羞草研究所� she said. 害羞草研究所淚害羞草研究所檓 mad. I害羞草研究所檓 going to catch that person.害羞草研究所�

Eburne has made certain she is not illegally parked, not relying on her own policing background, but after consulting with the bylaws office. She has been told her parking spot is a legal one.

She is also not the only victim. After complaining about the tagging in social media, she found others who have had their vehicles similarly tagged when they park in that spot.

To pull in, she drives northbound on 190 A toward The Wesbrooke, makes a right at the roundabout, and facing city hall makes a quick stop on the right-hand side, near the intersection, in the shade of a tree.

Neighbours say they have also been tagged there, as well as in other parking spots on the street nearby.

The parking spot is beside an elementary school, but Eburne doesn害羞草研究所檛 believe kids are responsible. The letters are in cursive writing, which is no longer taught.

The vandalism only occurs when the weather is sunny or at least fair.

Eburne has a lead on who the culprit might be, from a person who lives in the neighbourhood.

She has reported the nuisance to the Ridge Meadows RCMP, after several taggings, but only grudgingly.

Eburne wants to catch them in the act, whether by recording them with a camera, through information on social media, or even by stakeout.
