The Police Service of Northern Ireland (PSNI) has said it is investigating graffiti in County Tyrone as a racially motivated hate crime.
Officers appealed for information after graffiti was painted on buildings in several areas of Cookstown over the weekend.
Offensive language was written on a wall in a car park off the Burn Road and a swatstika was sprayed on a bus stop outside Holy Trinity College.
Shutters of a shop were also painted with swatstikas, while a racist message was written in the town centre.
PSNI Inspector Ross said: “I want to assure the public that we take all reports of hate crime extremely seriously.
“There is no place in our society for such behaviour.
