Winters police said Winters Middle School, 425 Anderson Ave., and Shirley Rominger Intermediate School, 502 Neimann St., were vandalized Monday night, along with vehicles, fences, sidewalks and other property. A racial slur was spray-painted on one vehicle, though police said the vehicle’s apparent owner was not a person of color.
