Police in Antioch are continuing to review surveillance video from Sunday and Monday morning, after two separate incidents of vandalism in the city's downtown area.
According to police, a suspect was seen in surveillance footage vandalizing a city owned vehicle on Sunday morning. The same person was also seen in the area on surveillance video Monday morning, though he was not seen committing a crime.
Although several locations were vandalized, including Antioch City Hall on Sunday and a church Monday morning, police said they do not believe the suspect targeted any specific places.
The first incident happened around 9 a.m. Sunday in downtown Antioch. When officers went to investigate the area, they found three city vehicles, a City Hall door and a business had been vandalized with spray paint.
On Monday morning, officers again received a report of vandalism in the area. Upon arrival, officers found black spray paint on numerous locations, including the Church of God-Holy near West Third and G streets, police said.
The vandalism consisted of swastikas, racial slurs and vulgar words and phrases.
In a video posted to the Church of God-Holy's Facebook page, Pastor Eugene Jackson showed the extent of the vandalism at the church.
