A 29-year-old Brooklyn man who's been caught spray-painting graffiti off Staten Island faces criminal charges here after his tag surfaced on a partition in Arrochar, police allege.

The NYPD's Citywide Vandals Task Force arrested O*** B***** this morning after linking him to a graffiti tag sprayed on a concrete street partition at the corner of Lily Pond and McLean avenues on April 13, court papers said.

B*****, who authorities say admitted the tag was his, faces single counts of making graffiti and fourth-degree criminal mischief, both misdemeanors.
