Vandals reportedly spray-painted apology for racist graffiti
Last week, residents of a Sammamish, Washington neighborhood woke up to racist graffiti, including swastikas and the n-word, on their homes and garages. (Video report below.) Now, it seems the perpetrators returned to spray-paint an apology. From KIRO 7:
More graffiti was found at Klahanie Park. It was a couple different things, King County Sheriffs Sergeant Ryan Abbott told KIRO Radio. First it was the word spray-painted Sorry, and then next to that there was another spray-paint it was hard to read that read, Not hate, just something, and then another Sorry.'
Its in the same red spray paint as before, Sergeant Abbott said, and they were just trying to say that they didnt mean any hate by their tags, which of course were offensive as you had read, but now theyre updating it to say this..."
Police are continuing to investigate. Theyre hoping that surveillance video will provide additional information.
