Description

GLEN BURNIE, MD — Swastikas were painted on a road and a building in Glen Burnie, police announced Monday. Nazi Germany used this symbol during the Holocaust, so many people consider it a symbol of hate. Officers heard about the vandalism in the Elvaton Towne community around 6:30 a.m. Authorities said they found two swastikas on the street and one on a building owned by the homeowners' association. Police and county crews were on the scene removing the swastikas around noon on Monday. Detectives are still investigating. Officers don't know how many people are responsible, and they did not give any information on the suspect(s). The Anne Arundel County Police Department asked anybody with information to call (410) 222-6135. Tipsters can stay anonymous by dialing (410) 222-4700. Have a story idea?
