Joseph Brandlin, who has lived in El Segundo for more than four decades, says he took matters into his own hands after months of trying to get the city officials to address safety concerns.
He painted the road with new markings (stop) that didn’t exist, and took down signs indicating there was a crosswalk and replaced them with stop signs. Obviously none of these should be some sort og huge crime but you could definitely be an ass about it and charge someone for all of these crimes for it. Doubt it’d hold up in court for any actual punishment.
Painting on the road = vandalism
Changing the signs for different ones = interfering with traffic control device
Taking down signs that are government property = grand theft

Huh, I didn’t get any of that by reading the article
Yeah it’s not very clear, that part about painting stop on the road is just in the subtext of an image for example.
Some asshole near me put up fake “cyclists must dismount and walk down hill” signs.
