DA's office door defaced with marker

CLOVIS — An exterior door to the office of the 9th Judicial District Attorney was defaced with a marker sometime before Tuesday morning.

Assistant District Attorney Kristen Beltran told the newspaper she saw the message “Nazi HQ” written in marker on the upper panel of the entrance to the office on Gidding Street Tuesday morning when she came to work.

Beltran said she contacted law enforcement, who responded and are now investigating the incident. The marker was erased from the door before Tuesday afternoon.

CPD Police Capt. Roman Romero said the incident was not handled by city police, since it occured on a county-owned building. Curry County Sheriff Wesley Waller did not immediately respond Tuesday to a request for more detail.
