Man in custody over racist graffiti in Chicago

A man is in custody after several Jefferson Park stores were defaced with swastikas, authorities said.

Swastikas were painted on the Supreme Smoke Shop’s back door, boarded-up front door and street sign on Tuesday night. The white supremacist graffiti also was found at another nearby shop owned by people of color, Supreme Smoke Shop owner Arcan Abu-hashish said.

Charges against the man are pending, said Officer Michelle Tannehill, a spokesperson for Chicago police.
