vandalizer
Wrecks public things
A vandalizer is someone who vandalizes—deliberately damages or defaces property, especially public property like buildings, monuments, or vehicles.
The word is a straightforward agent noun from vandalize, though vandal itself serves the same purpose and appears more frequently: Police are searching for the vandalizer who spray-painted the memorial.
