A black-owned automobile shop had been targeted for weeks by vandals leaving racist graffiti but the owner was surprised to find out the suspects were also black after he set up surveillance cameras.
The incident unfolded at Dwayne Haynesworth's Auto Body and Repair Shop in Spring Lake, North Carolina.
Haynesworth told WRAL that he was confused by the racist images left on cars by vandals over several weeks.
"I mean I'm not bothering anybody. I'm just out here trying to do business. I don't really know anybody out here," he said.
The spray painted swastikas and KKK figures on his cars and left the message, "please leave." They also damaged several vehicles. The owner said that the vandalism started after one of his vehicles was stolen from the lot he rents.
Haynesworth then set up surveillance cameras to capture images of the vandals.
Just 24 hours later, he showed the video to WRAL's Gilbert Baez.
The video showed two young males who appear to be black trying to steal one of Haynesworth's cars. The shop owner says there was more damage done to his vehicles, including paint scratches and windows broken.
One clue that might have tipped off the police to the incident being not a legitimate instance of white supremacy was that the swastika had one of the arms painted backwards.
Baez noted that the suspects appeared to be smoking a "blunt" on the video captured of them, and added that police didn't take any fingerprints at the scene of the crime.
The Spring Lake Police Department posted screenshots from the surveillance video on their Facebook page and asked for the public's help in identifying the suspects.
VIDEOS AT LINK..........................
Who has the Race Crime Hoax ping list?................
Sooooo, the current perp rate is approximately 100.0% black, eh?
Yeah, like who could have seen that coming???..................
Ha ha ha! The tards couldn’t even draw a swastika correctly!
The police, for the most part, are no longer on the side of justice.
Dyslexic vandals...................
Is that the original Jack-In-The-Box burger clown on the hood?
They hardly ever “take fingerprints” unless it was a felony crime of violence. People have been watching TV detective shows too much for 70 years..................
I don’t know why he was surprised that the perps were black. Almost all “hate crimes” are fake.
The point still stands: Now that they’ve seen the video, the police aren’t going to do anything about it.
Dyslexic?
Dyslexics of the world untie! 🤣
The pundits will tell you that this still provides a teachable moment for indoctrination on race discussions and plea that people NOT backlash against the black community for this action.
There NEVER is a call by activists to NOT backlash against white people because of such graffitti.
There IS opportunity to have a discussion on racism in America but the people who profit off of the division and victimization won’t permit it. It’s their bread and butter and they don’t want racism to ever end.
They used white paint.
White paint is racis
That was the FBI’s stance when they realized it was a black girl harassing her peers with racist content online.
Are they related to his competitors? Hired by someone who wants his business location? Wasting time on graffiti seems a bit much for simple auto theft. Then again, some crooks are just plain stupid.
