Racist Graffiti Found In Restroom At Salisbury Restaurant, State Police Investigating

SALISBURY, Md. (WJZ) -- Maryland State Police are investigating after multiple racial epithets were found inside a bathroom stall at a Salisbury restaurant Wednesday night.

Police said the owner of the restaurant in the 1400 block of South Salisbury Boulevard called them around 9:30 p.m. after finding the racist comments scratched into the door and walls of a stall in the women's bathroom.

The discovery comes in the wake of two instances of racist graffiti being found at Salisbury University this school year. Police identified a suspect in one of the instances, saying only that the person was not a part of the campus community.
