Police north of Toronto say a man has been charged in an alleged series of hate-motivated graffiti incidents in Richmond Hill, Ont., last week.
Police in York Region say they responded to a report of hate-related graffiti on the wall of a grocery store near Yonge Street and 16th Avenue on May 31.
They say two more businesses reported similar graffiti containing “anti-Iranian messages” that same day.
Police say a fourth graffiti incident was later reported at a nearby bus terminal.
The suspect, a 28-year-old man of no fixed address, has been charged with four counts of mischief under $5,000, among other offences.
Police say the accused was on probation and under a court order for previous, unrelated charges at the time of his arrest.
