A vandal, calling themselves the 'V-Gangster' is spray painting obscenities on several downtown restaurants who serve veal and-or fois-gras. So far, 7 restaurants have fallen victim, including Chef Parind Vora's Resturant Jezabel. He says the vandal sprayed obscenities across the door and windows. He adds this isn't the first-time he's been a target; saying his childrens safety has also been threatened.

Other downtown restaurants that were hit last week include Aquarelle, Eddie V's, Fleming's, Ruth's Chris steak house, The Spaghetti Warehouse and Truluck's.

Noah cooper with the Central Texas Animal Defense group says this vandal is going about the fight for animal right the wrong way.

"They are not going to be able to do alot of good for animals if they are in jail. So, they should keep that in mind. While their intentions are good, they are putting themselves and the perception of animal rights activists are risk."

Luckily the spray paint used was easily washed-off. Detectives are asking anyone with information to call police.
