CINCINNATI, Ohio -- Swastikas and racist graffiti were found on a high school building Sunday morning, leading parents and a state representative to call for Ohio Attorney General Mike DeWine to open an investigation into the incident, reports say.

According to the Cincinnati Enquirer, the graffiti on Withrow University High School used slurs for blacks and homosexuals, and the word "Trump" also was painted on the school. The graffiti was on signs, benches, sidewalks and on the building itself.

A surveillance camera at the school did manage to take video of a person involved who was wearing a mask. However, several of the cameras also were spray-painted, wlwt.com reports.

Withrow High School includes approximately 1,260 students from seventh through 12th grades, the Enquirer reports. About 97 percent of the students are non-white and many are immigrants.

According to fox19.com, a sign at Hebrew Union College in Cincinnati was vandalized with a swastika earlier this month. State Rep. Alicia Reece plans to ask DeWine to open an investigation to see if the incidents are connected.

"It's unbelievable," Reece tells wcpo.com. "Withrow was always a school that has great cooperation ... great diversity ... this is at least the second occurrence at least in Cincinnati. I was deeply hurt when I saw it happen to the Hebrew College, it seems to be a pattern."

Reece is a former student at Withrow.

The graffiti had been removed from the school by 5 p.m. Sunday, the Enquirer reports.

"This unfortunate event is further evidence of our need to heal and grow as a community," Cincinnati Public Schools said in a statement. "If this awful act encourages anything, we hope that it sparks continued dialogue among families about our need to come together as one country. Our diversity is an asset and should be celebrated."
