VIDEO: Cops Seek Suspect in String of Anti-Chinese Graffiti in Bensonhurst
Security camera footage has captured the man, cops say, could be responsible for a rash of anti-Chinese graffiti which popped up over the weekend in Bensonhurst.
According to authorities, the suspect — said to be a light-skinned male — used a stencil to spray paint the offensive statement on the exterior of Green Food Supermarket, 8508 20th Avenue, at around 2:36 a.m. Saturday, August 4.
At a press conference Monday outside 2041 86th Street — another business that was tagged — officials called the attack premeditated, stressing the perpetrator’s time and attention to targeting Asian-American-owned businesses.
