PITTSBURGH — Pittsburgh police and city officials are investigating after racist and vulgar messages and symbols were found spray-painted on the field house in Quarry Field.
A local youth baseball team said this is the second time its field house has been vandalized. The first time was Saturday, and just hours after painting over the graffiti, the team said someone tagged it again.
The field is near South 18th and Crosman streets, near the South Side Slopes. Crews already began to clean up the latest graffiti.
The N-word, along with what appeared to be a swastika symbol, was sprayed on the wall.
Police said the tag “Orez” was also painted in the same color paint.
“Disgusting and hateful actions like these have no place in our city and will not be tolerated. Law enforcement will work to identify and prosecute whoever did this to the fullest extent of the law,” Mayor Bill Peduto said.
Anyone who witnessed or has information regarding the graffiti is asked to call Pittsburgh Police.
