(1010 WINS) (NEW YORK) A Queens city councilman wants to throw the book at a graffiti artist who put his tag "XXXXX'' all over the place. Police say they've arrested 27-year-old XXXXXXX- who lives on the Upper West Side of Manhattan - and charged him with criminal mischief.

 

He's free on bail, although he faces up to four years in prison.

 

City Councilman Peter Vallone, Junior wants the Queens DA to send a message by seeking the top penalties against ******.

 

Vallone says he first saw the ``XXXX'' tag on the columns at Athens Square Park, and then he began seeing the tag everywhere. Vallone says there were more than 50 graffiti tags costing more than 100-thousand dollars in damage.

 

Police say X's girlfriend lived in Astoria, Queens, and he allegedly brought his can of spray paint with him when he visited her.
