Brandon police are looking for a man who is suspected to have spray painted two Brandon schools with racist and anti-Semitic comments on Saturday.
The exterior of Vincent Massey High School and Linden Lanes School were still covered in hateful and vulgar comments on Sunday morning when a Brandon Sun reporter investigated.
The incident is expected to have happened sometime between 4:30 a.m. and 5:00 a.m. on Saturday.
The man was identified from video surveillance as being possibly in his mid to late teens or early 20s. He was wearing a black or navy sweater or track jacket with a hood and two red or orange stripes on each sleeve from the shoulder to the wrist, and some red or orange striping along the seams of the torso. He was wearing black pants and shoes, a white sweater underneath the outer layer, a black ball cap with a red peak and a black bandana over his face. He was carrying a black backpack with orange writing across the front.
Black, blue and white spray paint were used to vandalize both schools.
Police are continuing to investigate.
If anyone knows the identity of the person they are being asked to contact the Brandon police or Crime Stoppers.
