Wilton School Defaced With Swastika: Report

The image was discovered late last week, according to Superintendent Kevin Smith.

WILTON, CT — A swastika was discovered scrawled on the wall of a boys bathroom at Middlebrook School last week, reports The Hour.

Schools Superintendent Kevin Smith emailed parents on Friday to alert them about the discovery, which was made Thursday. The parents of the child who drew it have spoken to district officials, and Smith said the child did not fully understand the "repercussions of drawing it," wrote the publication.

The Middlebrook incident occurred the same day as a Wilton High School student posting a gun image on Snapchat, which prompted an immediate investigation by police and school officials.
