LAWTON — A Muslim leader said he is grateful for community support in the aftermath of a vandalism incident in which a pig carcass was dumped in the parking lot of an Islamic center, 913 SW F Ave.

Hasan Ahmed director and imam of the Islamic Center of Tulsa, said the center's surveillance video shows a pickup pulling into the center parking lot about 3 a.m. Tuesday. He said the video showed the pickup backing up and someone shoving the pig's carcass off the tailgate.

Ahmed said since the incident became public, people from the community-at-large have contacted the center to express their support.

"The greatest thing that is happening is the support that is coming from everywhere," he said Friday in a telephone interview.
