Video: Starkville Church Sign Vandalized with Racist Message

STARKVILLE, Miss. (WCBI) –A preacher finds a shocking discovery after Sunday worship services. Someone defaced the church’s sign.

Michael Boyd, the Bishop at Victory Center Church in Starkville, says he found the letters “K K K” etched onto the church sign.

The predominantly African-American church is just off Highway 25, and Boyd says they’ve never experienced anything like this.

“It’s very disheartening. This sign has been up for 15 years, and we’ve never had a problem. And now all of a sudden I see ‘KKK’ written on my sign. It’s sad that we still have to deal with an issue such as this.”

Boyd says he filed a police report, and church members will replace the sign immediately.

The vandalism is still under investigation.
