Police in Delaware County are searching for a man who put anti-Muslim signs up around an local mosque earlier this week.

The signs were left at the Upper Darby Islamic Center on the 200 block of South 69th Street in the early hours of Monday, Nov. 27, police said.

The man was caught on camera walking to the mosque with items in black trash bags slung over his back at about 5:10 a.m. on Nov. 27. The footage, posted below, shows him leave items outside the building then walk away minutes later.
