A Saugus woman found herself to be the victim of a hate crime Wednesday morning when her car was vandalized.

Sgt. Ron Price of the Santa Clarita Valley station said that a swastika and the words “gay” and “bro” were written on the windshield of the car.

“She thought it was unusual because she told us she wasn’t Jewish or gay,” Price said. The victim did have a “bro” sticker on the back of the car.

Because of the nature of the vandalism, detectives are treating the incident as a hate crime.
