    Perhaps you’ve seen his work?

     

    Cops busted a brazen serial tagger who allegedly defaced a midspan tower of the Brooklyn Bridge with white bubble letters this summer.

     

    *&%%$, 32, of Queens has multiple arrests for planting his signature "LEWY" around the city, leading cops to identify him as the suspect in the June 25 bridge graffiti job, cops said.

     

    Now the once-elusive tagger seems to have painted himself into a corner. He was collared Friday and charged with criminal mischief, making graffiti, criminal trespass and possession of a graffiti instrument after a nearly five-month investigation by NYPD Transit Bureau Sgt. Kevin Cooper and Nino Navarra, police said.

     

    *&^%'s bridge tarnish job was the first time in nearly two decades the Brooklyn Bridge had been tagged. Cleanup efforts on the bridge “art” cost about $8,000.

     

    Cops also wanted @#$%^ for questioning in connection with the theft of a $100,000 Calvin Klein poster that was taken from a W. 23rd St. building last year. That incident is still under investigation, police said.
