The Bristol Police Department is attempting to identify two male suspects involved in a vandalism complaint where the suspects placed Nazi themed propaganda (white supremacy) stickers in areas of the town.
On 4/24/2021, Bristol PD received reports of large stickers being placed at several locations around town, including the Roger's Free Library and the US Post Office. The stickers read "WHITE BOY SUMMER", with Adolf Hitler depicted in the background. Police located several more stickers around town.
