Two teenagers have been charged over the vandalism of a federal Labor MP’s Melbourne office which left it smeared in red paint.

Windows were smashed and covered in painted slogans including “Zionism is fascism” at the electoral office of Labor MP Josh Burns at Barkly Street in St Kilda, on June 19.

At the time, Burns called the damage a “politically motivated attack” and acknowledged that images of the incident might be distressing for people.

Police charged an 18-year-old woman and a 17-year-old boy on Thursday with burglary and two counts of criminal damage.

The charges included a second incident of vandalism with red paint at a building on St Kilda Road in Melbourne, on July 17.

The woman has been bailed to appear at Melbourne Magistrates Court on October 11, while the boy will face a children’s court at a later date.

Police are continuing to investigate the two incidents.
