(WSB Radio) Dunwoody police, Sandy Springs police and the southeast regional office of the Anti Defamation League are offering a $7,500 dollar reward for information that leads to the arrest and conviction of those responsible for spray painting anti-semitic graffiti and vulgar images and phrases on three homes in the two cities.

The vandalism occurred between Saturday night and Sunday morning at homes on Redfield Road and Coronation Drive in Dunwoody and at a home on Princeton Trace in Sandy Springs.

In addition to the graffiti on the homes, Dunwoody Police Sgt. Mike Carlson tells WSB "swastikas, profanity and phallic symbols were found on the mailboxes, grass, bushes and roads near the vandalized dwellings."

Dunwoody resident Karen Goldstein tells Channel 2 Action News "it's just terrible, it's just a shame that all this is happening, and it's not just to Jewish people." 

Police reports from both departments indicate one vandalized home in each city was occupied by Jewish families, but investigators have not determined if the actions were a prank or a hate crime.
