Los Angeles police arrested a man on suspicion of defacing a mosque in Koreatown with anti-Islamic hate words.
Los Angeles police arrested a man on suspicion of defacing a mosque in Koreatown with anti-Islamic hate words, Chief Michel Moore said Tuesday.
Carlos Moran, 43, was taken into custody in the 500 block of Shatto Place near the mosque, Moore said, adding that he claimed he was a king and appeared to be struggling with mental health issues. The chief described the writings as hate-motivated. The vandalism occurred during Islam’s holy month of Ramadan, which began in late March. Muslims perform daily prayers and refrain from eating or drinking from shortly before sunrise until sunset during the month to bring them closer to God.
