Graffiti Tourist Arrested in NYC

Last month a Queens couple was caught tagging international property, as well as plenty of surfaces in NYC. Now , WNBC reports that authorities said "a resident of the Netherlands who came to New York as a 'graffiti tourist' has been indicted on charges of spray painting a subway car and leading police on a dangerous chase." The chase occurred down the subway tracks! And the 23-year-old Robbert Boxem (aka KRAE) now faces charges of criminal mischief and reckless endangerment. Boxem was allegedly here for the international graffiti event Meeting of Styles.
