An Upper Hunter man will face Newcastle court on the weekend after two offices in Sydney were allegedly damaged by graffiti.

About 4am on Thursday 25 July, police were called to a building on Harris Street, Ultimo, following reports the building had been defaced.

About 25 minutes later, a man allegedly sprayed graffiti on an office on Hordern Place, Camperdown.

Following a joint investigation by officers from Sydney City and Inner West Police Area Commands, they arrested a 46-year-old male at Dunolly, near Singleton, about 11.45am on Friday 26 July.

He was taken to Singleton Police Station where he was charged with intentionally mark premises without consent, drive whilst suspended, three counts of face blackened/disguised with intent to commit an indictable offence, and attempt stalk/intimidate intend fear of harm.

Police then executed a search warrant on a property in the Hunter Valley and seized items, which officers will allege in court to be connected to the incidents at Ultimo and Camperdown.

The man was refused bail to appear before Newcastle Local Court on Saturday 27 July.
