Toronto police have released a photo of a woman in hopes the public can help identify her as part of a suspected hate-motivated mischief investigation.
According to the police’s hate crime unit, officers received numerous calls between July 3 and Dec. 21 for reports of graffiti at various TTC stations.
Police said it’s reported that the suspect vandalized property at the station by writing anti-Indian messaging both in the stations and on subway cars.
On Sunday, police said the female suspect was described as wearing earmuffs, a long black coat, brown boots and a white and brown scarf.
Authorities say the investigation is being treated as a suspected hate-motivated offence.
Anyone with information is asked to contact Toronto police at 416-808-3500 or Crime Stoppers anonymously.
