Antisemitic symbols painted along Brisbane walkway

Police are investigating after racist and antisemitic signs were painted under a public walkway in Brisbane.

The imagery was found on Tuesday near the intersection of Stephens Road and Vulture Street in South Bank.

Brisbane Times understands swastikas were among the painted symbols.

Police say the signs were painted about 9.30am on February 18, and have released photos of a man who may be able to assist with the investigation.

He has short blonde hair and was wearing a yellow high-vis singlet, black shorts, and a jumper around his neck.

CCTV shows him at the nearby train station and walking along Vulture Street away from the tunnel.

Earlier this month, promotional material for a white nationalist group was removed by council from a Brisbane street.

Posters at the intersection of Milton, Park and Baroona roads in Milton said “ANZACs died for a white Australia” and used racial slurs against multiple ethnic groups. A link for a hate group website was attached.

“It’s repulsive that individuals are exploiting our ANZACs to perpetuate evil and division in our community,” Deputy Mayor Fiona Cunningham said at the time.

“Brisbane is an incredibly vibrant multicultural community, and we must all do what we can to protect that by stamping out hateful and divisive behaviour.”
