Sharon Police Looking for Church Vandals

Police are looking for individuals who spray-painted anti-Semitic messages on the doors of Victory Assembly of God church, among other damage.

The Sharon Police Department is looking for help in finding individuals responsible for damage and anti-Semitic messages painted at the Victory Assembly of God, according to a MyFoxBoston.com report. Several swastikas were discovered spray-painted on the doors of the church, and a rock had been thrown through one of the building's windows, Rev. Joe Green told MyFoxBoston.com. "There is an evil in the world we all know that and there's not a whole lot we can do about that," Green told Fox. "We just pick up the pieces and move forward." Police are asking for help in finding a vehicle or anything suspicious spotted on High Plain Street between 9 and 10 p.m. Friday night. Anyone who may have information is asked to contact Sharon Police.
