Wet paint is seen on the side of a dugout in Esquimalt's Lions Park, Tues., March 2, 2021.

Investigators with the Victoria Police Department are trying to figure out who spray-painted white supremacist graffiti on an Esquimalt baseball dugout over the weekend.

The swastika was discovered in Lions Park, in the 800-block of Lampson Street, just after 2 p.m. Sunday. It has since been painted over by public works.

The swastika appeared alongside “similar-themed” white supremacist content,, police told CHEK News.

They’re asking anyone who has information about the graffiti to call the police non-emergency line at 250-995-7654 ext. 1 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.
