Car Of Philadelphia Mayoral Candidate Vandalized

PHILADELPHIA (CBS) – Philadelphia police are searching for those responsible for vandalizing the car of the Republican candidate for mayor.

Mayoral candidate Karen Brown, who is running against incumbent Michael Nutter, says someone splattered paint on her car in South Philadelphia early Tuesday morning.

Brown said the vandalism and other campaign problems are signs of politics as usual in Philadelphia.

"This is what happens in Philadelphia politics, you can't even have a fair race. It's bad enough I got my party actually doing ballots without me on it … and then I got people vandalizing my car on the day of the election," Brown said.

Brown says her car has been vandalized at least 10 times. So far, no arrests have been made.
