Tayyab Muhammad, of South Farmingdale, accused of defacing 9/11 Memorial at Tobay Beach 

Two people face criminal mischief charges after they spray painted graffiti in several locations Saturday at Tobay Beach, including the September 11 Memorial, Nassau County police said.

Around 3:40 p.m., officers were called to the Town of Oyster Bay park at 1 Ocean Pkwy. in Massapequa, where they found graffiti at the Boatyard restaurant, the men and women’s restrooms, a concession stand, the Surf Shack restaurant, the west bathhouse, and the Walls of Honor at the Sept. 11 memorial.

The graffiti caused about $3,500 worth of damage in total, police said. It was cleaned up by Monday morning.

Police charged Tayyab Muhammad, 20, of South Farmingdale, and a male juvenile, who were arrested on Sunday without incident, police said.

Each faces charges of second-degree felony criminal mischief and a misdemeanor charge of making graffiti, police said.

“This act of vandalism is an affront to the memory of those we lost and the heroes who sacrificed everything,” Town Supervisor Joseph Saladino said in a prepared statement. “The Town of Oyster Bay will never tolerate hate, and we urge anyone with information to come forward immediately.”

Muhammad pleaded not guilty Monday in First District Court in Hempstead. He was released with nonmonetary bail conditions and ordered to return to court next week.

Muhammed’s court-assigned attorney could not be reached for comment Monday.

The juvenile was set to be arraigned Monday at the Youth Section of First District Court in Hempstead.
