Now 19-year-old Derrick Noel is in jail, facing more than 130 criminal charges for vandalism which officials said amounts to more than $500,000 in property damage.
Noel, who lives in the 2500 block of Newport Gap Pike in Prices Corner, is being held in Young Correctional Institution in Wilmingtonafter failing to post $128,000 secured bail.
The investigation into the suspect, who uses the tag “EASY,” “EASE” and the “Fast Hands Crew,” began April 8 when New Castle County police Cpl. Michael Hopkins stopped a car parked diagonally in the fire lane and saw two men quickly entering the car trying to hide abaseball bat.
When the officer told the pair to secure the bat in the trunk for safekeeping, police said he spotted a cache of spray paint cans, and an instrument designed to spray paint graffiti, along with albums of 216 photographs of graffiti images painted on rail cars.
