This Monday morning the Lakewood Country Club in Los Angeles found a crude 8 by 8 foot swastika carved into their putting green. Det. Theo Gekas of the Lakewood sheriff’s station said that the authorities are taking this situation very seriously. “Right now, it’s classified as vandalism coupled with a hate incident. Based on crimes that have happened in the past in that area, there’s a suspicion that it may be teenage kids.” He stated.

Los Angeles County Supervisor Don Knabe will ask other county officials to approve a five thousand dollar reward for information leading to the arrest of the individual(s) responsible for the swastika.

“The physical damage to the golf course may be repaired already, but the lasting damage that crimes like this leave on a community can be far more devastating,” Knabe told the LA Times.

Anyone with information is asked to call Detective Gekas at (562) 623-3500.
