An Australian street artist allegedly responsible for a statewide graffiti series targeting well-known landmarks will face court after being charged with dozens of offences.
The cartoon-like images of "Pam the Bird" have been seen all around Victoria in recent months, including on trains, buildings and other landmarks.
A 21-year-old Yarraville man was arrested yesterday and will face Melbourne Magistrates Court today.
He is facing more than 50 charges, including criminal damage, burglary, shop theft and theft of a motor vehicle.
In one of the most high-profile incidents, police would allege the man scaled and defaced the heritage-listed Flinders Street Railway Station clock tower in July 2024.
Police believed the man was also responsible for graffiti plastered across the rail network as well as the "Cheese Stick" column on the CityLink road, a television station building in the Docklands and concrete silos in Geelong.
The latest incident targeted a hotel in South Wharf on January 20.
The total damage of the offending was estimated at more than AU$100,000 (NZ$110,200).
The same man has also been charged over an incident in Footscray where an allegedly stolen car was driven through the front window of a restaurant in December 2024.
Police have also charged a 39-year-old Abbotsford man with more than 20 criminal damage offences relating to the graffiti of suburban trains and a Docklands office building.
