Serial graffiti suspect arrested! 
For the past several months, the City of Simi Valley has experienced an uptick in “gang graffiti” vandalisms, wherein the suspects have predominantly been targeting residential areas located on the west end of the city. In many of those graffiti vandalisms, a suspect has tagged “GMT” on fences and properties that face several residential thoroughfares. Members of the Simi Valley Police Department’s Special Enforcement Team took the lead in investigating these crimes and identified David Euan, 20 years, who is a resident of Simi Valley as being the primary suspect in this series.
On July 12, 2024, David Euan was arrested at his residence and was taken to the Ventura County Sheriff’s Department’s East Valley Jail where he was booked for Felony Vandalism.
