On Dec. 3, 18-year old, Talan Jones, who is also known as “MANGO” was arrested a second time in the span of a month for spray-painting his name all over Tulsa.
The tag “MANGO” can be seen over 100 times in Tulsa, and Tulsa Police say he’s caused over $100,000 dollars in graffiti damage. Last month, Jones was arrested while actively spray-painting the word “MANGO” on a wall near HWY 51 after officers caught him red-handed.
He was arrested then on complaints of vandalism and resisting arrest. Yesterday, Jones was arrested on seven counts of malicious injury to property and obstruction.
Officers said during his arrest, Jones’ father, Todd Jones, was speaking to officers when a drug scale fell out of his pants. Todd Jones, a convicted felon, was arrested for possession of a firearm after a felony conviction and drug possession.
