Justin Bieber 'In Trouble With Police Over Rio Hotel Graffiti'

Justin Bieber has reportedly been charged with illegally spraying graffiti on a hotel wall in Brazil.

Earlier this week, snaps emerged online of JB spray painting outside the Hotel Nacional in Rio, wearing a baseball cap and jeans - with The Mirror reporting that he caught the attention of the police.

The officers have since sent the case to the Special criminal court - known was JECrim - which deals with minor offences, and if found guilty, Bieber faces a fine.

The newspaper adds that local reports suggest Justin was granted a licence to paint on a wall in the tourist area of Vila Olimpica do Vidigal, but following a visit to the authorised site on Monday (November 4), he decided to graffiti somewhere else the next day. 

Cops later quizzed Bieber over the complaint, with the 19-year old sending one of his personal minders to deal with the issue at the police station. 

Antonio Ricardo - of the city’s Civil Police - stated yesterday: “The ­musician does not have ­permission from the owner of the site to do the paintings.”

The hotel in question has since painted over Justin's tags. 

When asked about the matter, a spokesperson for Bieber said the singer had "no comment".
