Details on racist graffiti in Missouri
According to a Fox 2 News report, Patrick Sloan, 18, was arrested and charged with two counts of property damage motivated by discrimination in connection to racist vandalism found on two local schools.
According to authorities, the racist graffiti was initially found on March 7 on an outside wall at Affton High School, where Sloan reportedly graduated from last May. Swastikas and other offensive messages scattered the wall of the high school.
Police then found more graffiti on March 12 at Rogers Middle School. Racist messages were covered on the front of the building included racial slurs, a threat to kill Black people, swastikas, the phrase “white power,” and the numbers “88,” which means “Heil Hitler.”
Authorities reportedly used surveillance footage to connect the suspect to a hardware store robbery during which he stole two cans of black spray paint the night before the high school vandalism.
According to the Fox 2 news report, Sloan’s mother identified her son as the suspect in the footage.
“I was aware of the incident. And after review of the security footage, I realized that it was my son,” Sloan’s mother said. “So, I did what I feel is the correct thing: to turn him in. I don’t accept his behavior.”
“He has become involved with a radicalized political group… He was considering marching with them,” she added. “His intent was to stir up the community, which he very well did. He is not of that belief system.”
Sloan is currently being held on a $25,000 bond.
