The largest news outlet in Brazil is claiming that photos the newspaper published show Justin Bieber spray painting a wall.

The Associated Press is reporting that the O Globo newspaper says police want to talk to Bieber about the graffiti found on a former Rio de Janeiro hotel wall.

Police reportedly tried to question the pop star at his rented mansion, but Bieber wasn’t there at the time. Defacing a building in Brazil carries a possible jail sentence of up to one year and a fine.

This isn't the first time he allegedly was spray painting graffiti. Beiber was caught spray painting graffiti in Bogota, Colombia last week after a performance.

The pop star’s stay in Brazil has been an eventful one. On Saturday during a performance, the singer was hit with a water bottle, Los Angeles Times reports. Bieber walked backstage and didn’t return. Fans waited half an hour just in case he would return.

Bieber was also caught coming out of the infamous Centaurus club, where he spent several hours. There were suggestions that the singer might have originally thought the brothel was simply a members-only club. When he left, his security team tried to hide his identity by covering him with a sheet.
