Two separate Fairlawn businesses were hit by graffiti artists on March 5, according to Fairlawn police.

On the eastern door and south rear door of Fairlawn Dermatology, they spray painted "I'd rather be hated," and "RedNow," police said. The incident occurred some time between March 2 and March 5 at 9 a.m.

Then owners of MWT Investment on West Market noticed they were struck by the graffiti artist too, but this time they used a black marker to write "RedNow."
