CHESTERFIELD COUNTY, Va. (WRIC) -- After a Chesterfield church was vandalized with racist slurs and other messages, Chesterfield County/Colonial Heights Crime Solvers continue to seek the public's help in finding the person(s) responsible.

Some time between Feb. 8 and Feb. 15, Village of Faith Ministries, located at 11000 Hull Street Rd., in Chesterfield County, was vandalized, according to officials.

Police said an unknown suspect or suspects spray-painted racist graffiti on the side of the building. Other graffiti on the building reportedly included, "HELLS ANGELS ONT CANADA," "DEAD MAN HELLS ANG," "TRUMP IS A FASCIST," "AK47" and more, police said.
