A few more hate-motivated incidents occurred over the weekend, Waterloo Regional Police said Monday, adding to at least a dozen other incidents in August.
The first of the new incidents occurred overnight Saturday and into Sunday morning as someone used a marker to vandalize a washroom in Kitchener’s Victoria Park.
The following evening, police say someone spray-painted a statue in the park with hate-motivated writing and symbols.
The other incident occurred in Waterloo near King and Spruce streets on Sunday morning at around 6 a.m.
Police say that 14 vehicles were spray-painted with graffiti, including hate-motivated symbols and writing.
They are continuing to investigate all of the incidents and are asking anyone with information to call 519-570-9777 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.
