Police Seek Vandal Who Targeted Las Vegas LGBTQ Center

LAS VEGAS (AP) — Authorities are searching for a suspect who vandalized a Las Vegas community center serving gay, lesbian and transgender people.

Las Vegas police say a man spray-painted a homophobic slur in black letters on the glass doors of the LGBTQ Center of Southern Nevada on Thursday morning.

Investigators say two surveillance videos show the suspect using a spray can and also interacting with another man.

The second man, who has been deemed a person of interest, is also the same height and dressed in a black hoodie, brown pants and a camouflage baseball cap.

Both appear to be between the age of 20 and 25.
