They need to personally observe the crime, so they shouldn't have arrested him, they did not observe the defacing.

Sigh. Criminal mischief(property damage) is a misdemeanor/felony. It requires no direct observation but rather an officer can reach probably cause based on evidence. Violations or infractions must be personally observed.

People love to complain not knowing the law . There’s a big difference between a violation and a crime. I could walk up to you and spit in your face and not get arrested for it because it’s not a crime
