NEW BRITAIN, Conn. (AP) - Authorities are investigating racist slurs spray painted on two buildings at a Connecticut university.
The New Britain Herald reports that a racist epithet directed at African Americans was spray painted on an exterior wall of the student center and a wall of a parking garage at Central Connecticut State University over the weekend.
A spokeswoman for the New Britain school, Janice Palmer, says a school employee noticed the vandalism just before noon on Sunday.
President Zulma Toro said in a message to the campus that “We must stand together to demonstrate that this behavior will not be tolerated on our campus, and I commit to leading this charge.”
Campus police are reviewing surveillance footage as part of their investigation.
