2nd incident this week of #paint in the creek.
On Monday, spray paint cans & litter were found caught in branches in the #creek near Haultain Street, about a kilometre away from Friday’s site, said Soren Henrich, director of the Friends of #BowkerCreek Society.
In that case, small amounts of orange and white paint were #leaking from the cans and swirling on the surface, Henrich said.
