HATE HOAX: Black Owned Auto Shop That Was Graffitied With Idiotically Incorrect Racists Images Turns Out To Be Black Suspects Caught On CCTV

A black-owned automobile shop had been targeted for weeks by vandals leaving racist graffiti but the owner was surprised to find out the suspects were also black after he set up surveillance cameras.

The incident unfolded at Dwayne Haynesworth's Auto Body and Repair Shop in Spring Lake, North Carolina.

Haynesworth told WRAL that he was confused by the racist images left on cars by vandals over several weeks.

"I mean I'm not bothering anybody. I'm just out here trying to do business. I don't really know anybody out here," he said.

The spray-painted swastikas and KKK figures on his cars and left the message, "please leave." They also damaged several vehicles. The owner said that the vandalism started after one of his vehicles was stolen from the lot he rents.

Haynesworth then set up surveillance cameras to capture images of the vandals.

Just 24 hours later, he showed the video to WRAL's Gilbert Baez.

The video showed two young males who appear to be black trying to steal one of Haynesworth's cars. The shop owner says there was more damage done to his vehicles, including paint scratches and windows broken.

One clue that might have tipped off the police to the incident being not a legitimate instance of white supremacy was that the swastika had one of the arms painted backwards.
