Police are currently investigating an act of vandalism that occurred at a jewelry store in Central on Monday. 

A jewelry store, located on the ground floor of a building located on Cochrane Street, was found doused in red paint at 7 am today.

The incident was reported to the police who arrived at the scene to find the exterior of the jewelry store, including the glass door and iron gate, stained with red paint.

The case has been classified as criminal damage, and authorities are reviewing security footage to identify the perpetrators.
