Anti-Chinese graffiti spray-painted in S.F. neighborhood
A string of spray-painted taggings in southeast San Francisco this weekend are being investigated by the police not just as acts of vandalism, but as hate crimes. The graffiti took place Sunday, according to a police statement, with the words “No more Chinese” spray-painted in several locations in the Portola neighborhood, just south of where Highway 101 and Interstate 280 merge. Among the targets were the Palega Recreation Center, an out-of-business supermarket, the 100 block of Brussels Street and the 1300 block of Silver Avenue.
