Hamilton, ON – Police are seeking a suspect in connection with the placement of antisemitic messages in Hamilton’s downtown.

Investigators say the graffiti was located in an area at the McMaster University facility across from city hall around Main Street West and Bay Street.

“Police were also contacted on Tuesday by the city of Hamilton when they located eight bodies of graffiti at the intersection of Bay Street and York, just outside the federal building,” said Bharaj.

The suspect is described as a male, between 30 and 50 years old, with a large build and short black hair.

Detectives have pulled surveillance video from an instance on Sunday around 6 a.m. outside the federal building showing a suspect wearing a black sweater, jeans, red running shoes and a black backpack.
