Wellington, FL - Vandals Spray Paint Homes

 
Wellington, FL - Deputies are looking for vandals who spray painted racial epithets and swastikas on properties in Wellington.

Garage doors, driveways, cars, signs and even pavement outside homes in the 1100 and 1200 blocks of Primrose Lane were blanketed with blue spray paint, and also were mailboxes knocked-over, according to the Palm Beach County Sheriff's Office.

Other vandalism at the homes in the Sugar Pond Manor neighborhood was more sinister: Racial epithets about Jews and blacks scrawled in blue letters, along with numerous swastikas.  Ming Chen, 40, said swastikas were spray painted on his front door and garage door, as well as his Toyota Corolla. The vandals also painted "Jew Hater" on his driveway and slashed the Corolla's tires.

The incidents spurred deputies to increase their patrols of the neighborhood, said sheriff's office spokeswoman Teri Barbera.
