MOONACHIE, N.J. — Police are investigating a break-in and the scrawling of racist graffiti at the New Jersey home of a New York Giants player.
The break-in at Nikita Whitlock’s home is being investigated as a hate crime, Moonachie police Sgt. Richard Behrens told The Record. Jewelry and electronics were also stolen, he said.
Whitlock, who’s black, showed reporters the graffiti — “KKK,” a swastika and other racial slurs — on multiple walls inside his family’s home. The name “Trump” was also written on the wall in marker.
Whitlock is a fullback on the injured reserve list with a foot injury.
