There have been multiple reports of vandalism and hate crimes in more than one neighborhood on the Westside of Los Angeles. According to NBC Los Angeles and Fox News, at least four cars were defaced with swastikas with spray paint, and, in one case, a swastika was carved into the hood of one resident’s car in the Ladera Heights and View Park-Windsor Hills neighborhoods, causing concern and alarm. 

According to a press release from the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department, on Friday, September 29, the Marina Del Rey Sheriff’s Station received multiple reports of vandalism incidents involving the spray-painting of swastikas on victims’ vehicles. The victims discovered these acts of vandalism in the morning after their vehicles had been parked overnight on the street in front of their residences.
