A 23-year-old Senoia man was practically caught in the act of “tagging” part of the Flat Creek Nature Trail with graffiti Wednesday night, police said.

When officers arrived, the paint was still wet to the touch and Peter John Luker, 23, of Stoneridge Way, Senoia had stencils and paint pens in his possession, police said.

Officers also noticed paint on Luker’s hands, police said. Luker was arrested at the scene and charged not just for the graffiti but also for marijuana possession, police said.

Detectives are investigating whether Luker might be linked to other graffiti in the city, police said.

Officers were sent to the nature area behind the city’s amphitheater after someone called 911 and reported seeing Luker with a can of spray paint in his possession, police said.

The incident occurred just after 8 p.m. and officers first spotted Luker’s golf cart upon entering the nature area, police said. It is not immediately known if Luker drove his golf cart from his Senoia residence.
