Abilene church spray-painted with gang-like symbols


From Texas-

Vandals have targeted the Episcopal Church of the Heavenly Rest, defacing the building with symbols in orange and black paint.

Sometime between 10 p.m. Tuesday and 8 a.m. Wednesday, the base of the northeast corner of the building was spray-painted with symbols that Heavenly Rest Administrator Conrad Bratton said he assumes are gang-related.

It's not the first time the church has experienced vandalism, Bratton said.

"We've had this same thing," he said. "We've had broken windows, graffiti. This is bigger than they've ever done."

The church has security cameras, he said, but not near the area where the vandalism took place. Among the symbols sprayed on the base of the church is a swastika.
