While walking up the sidewalk to the residence, he appeared to make two a ‘Sieg Heil’ gestures, also known as the Nazi salute, before ripping the displayed Pride flag from the front porch railing.
As the suspect then turned and walked away, he made a “rude gesture,” appearing to raise his middle finger towards the home.
The suspect appears to be a man with a slender build.
