FAIRFIELD, CT Police are investigating after graffiti that officials characterized as disturbing, political and racist was reported at a Fairfield elementary school and a nearby store.
A McKinley Elementary School employee notified law enforcement 1:30 p.m. Wednesday about vandalism on a sidewalk outside the school at 60 Thompson St., according to police.
Officers found the words United States of China spray-painted on the sidewalk and on a snow mound in the back of the school parking lot, police said. The phrase Biden For Socialism had also been painted on a sidewalk near the school but was removed by school district employees before officers arrived, according to police.
