NEW HAVEN, Conn. (AP) - New Haven police are looking for the person responsible for breaking windows and racist and obscene graffiti at two locations in the city, including a police sub-station.

Officers responded to a Foxon Boulevard building at about 9 a.m. Monday to find that all the first-floor windows and glass doors had been smashed, while an adjacent wooden fence had been defaced with swastikas, anti-police graffiti and an obscene illustration. The building houses an Indian restaurant, an immigration office and other businesses.

A short time later, similar graffiti was found at the police sub-station at the Bella Vista elderly housing complex.



Police hope to get an image of the vandal from surveillance video.

A witness described seeing a single vandal between 2 a.m. and 3 a.m. wearing dark clothing.
