The FBI and U.S. Secret Service are investigating who carved a swastika and President Obama’s name on the 18th hole of a golf course in Lakeville, a town some 40 miles south of Boston, the Boston Globe reports.
Early Monday morning, workers at the Lakeville Country Club discovered the message “I (swastika) Obama” and immediately notified authorities, the paper reported.
“We investigate these cases thoroughly,” Steven Ricciardi, special agent in charge of the Secret Service’s Boston office told the Globe. The local police chief told the paper that the crime was likely a hate crime.
