OLYMPIA, Wash. (AP) — The Olympia home of a self-described anarchist was vandalized with windows broken and the message “Get Out of Oly” spray-painted on an outside wall.

Daniel Wilson told The Olympian he did not want to press charges for the Tuesday night damage to the rental home.

In 2008, Wilson was arrested during a May Day protest and convicted of malicious mischief and reckless endangerment for throwing a rock at a bank window.

Olympian photographer Tony Overman took a photo that day that helped police identify Wilson. Last month, Overman’s home and The Olympian’s building were tagged by graffiti labeling Overman a snitch.
