Police in Seattle are investigating the placement of stickers promoting white nationalists throughout the city’s Chinatown-International District, reports Patch.
Witnesses saw three men in masks plastering the stickers on several Asian American-owned businesses.
Q13 reports stunned and concerned community members spent time scraping off most of the White supremacist propaganda.
“They were staring at me the whole time, because when I came out they kept looking at me non-stop,” said a store owner who spoke on conditions of anonymity to KOMO News.
Police from the Bias Crime Unit told KOMO the men are likely associated with the Patriot Front, a known White supremacist hate group. The stickers included slogans associated with White supremacists including “America First” and “Better Dead Than Red.”
