ORLANDO, Fla. — Police on Sunday were investigating vandals’ spray-painting of dozens of city vehicles, some with disparaging messages about the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Sen. Barack Obama.
Authorities think the vandalism to about 60 vehicles, estimated at $10,000 in damage, was done Saturday afternoon, a police spokeswoman said.
The culprits left messages including “Obama smokes crack” and a racial epithet.
They left cards on the vehicles that disparage both Obama and his Republican rival, Sen. John McCain. The cards voice support for Sen. Hillary Clinton, Obama’s former opponent.
