Days after Bucks County District Attorney Joh Khan announced the launch of the hate crimes roundtable series, to discuss solutions for preventing and addressing hate crimes, hate symbols and racial slurs were intentionally carved into a Golf Course in Yardley, police say.
According to police, the incident occurred between 8 pm Friday September 25 and 7 a.m the following morning in which portions of the Yardley Country Club golf course greens had racial slurs and swastikas carved into it.
“This type of behavior is not only a criminal act, but it is also hateful, offensive and has no place in our community” Yardley Borough Police said across its socials.
Police are actively investigating the incident and holding those responsible accountable, authorities said.
If you have information about the hate inspired vandalism please contact Yardley Borough Police at 215 493 2782 — Officer Alex Bires at ext 411.
