HILLSBOROUGH, N.C. (WNCN) — The Republican Party headquarters in Orange County was vandalized and firebombed overnight, Hillsborough Police said Sunday afternoon.

The building at 347 Ja-Max Drive was hit with graffiti and “flammable material” was thrown through a window starting a fire inside, police said in an email.

Graffiti that said “Nazi Republicans leave town or else” was spray painted in black paint on the side of a building next to the Republican headquarters, according to police.

That graffiti, which was also at 353 Ja-Max Drive, included a swastika and was discovered before 9 a.m. by a nearby business owner, officials said.

“The flammable substance appears to have ignited inside the building, burned some furniture and damaged the building’s interior before going out,” police said. “The substance was housed in a bottle thrown through one of the building’s front windows.”

No one was hurt and no damage estimates were available. Police are working with the ATF to investigate, officials said.

The North Carolina Republican Party released a statement Sunday afternoon calling the incident a “hate crime” and said they would increase security at events and offices.

I believe it’s pro “LGBT” anarchists opposed to the recently passed anti-perv law passed in NC

“Liberal stronghold” is right. Just as bad in Chapel Hill and Asheville. These people are nothing but “Wire-Rimmed-Glasses, Birkenstalk Wearing, Grey-Pony-Tailed, ‘60’s Radicals. IMHO.

An interesting observation is that the spelling was correct and the orientation of the swastika arms/legs were accurate.

This would tend to rule out any BLM involvement as they can not even spell matter
