HASTINGS, Minn. (AP) — Hastings police are investigating after hate messages and racial slurs were spray-painted on some homes.

Police Chief Paul Schnell says although the graffiti includes slurs against blacks, none of the people living in the homes are black.

Schnell tells the Star Tribune the messages include "hate rules" and "hail Satan."

He says a picture window was painted on one house while another had one side covered with a one-word slur.

About six homes were targeted early Friday. Police have no suspects or motive.
