Oakland mayor’s home vandalized with graffiti calling for defunding police

[NYPOST] A pack of vandals allegedly sprayed-painted graffiti about defunding the police across the garage door, sidewalk and stone wall of Oakland Mayor Libby Schaaf’s home early Tuesday morning.

Witnesses said as many as 40 people wearing facemasks and all-black clothing shot off fireworks and other projectiles as they vandalized Schaaf’s home around 2 a.m., the local ABC affiliate reported.

Some of the graffiti messages read, "Defund OPD," "homes 4 all," and "blood on your hands," according to the station.

Justin Berton, the mayor’s front man, confirmed the witness’ accounts to the East Bay Times.

"This attack, designed to intimidate the mayor and strike fear into her family, will not stop her from advocating for the policies she believes are in the best long-term interests of her beloved hometown," Berton said in a statement.
