A 48-year-old Salt Lake woman who says she has been harassed and intimidated by a neighbor for more than a year awakened Wednesday morning to discover her car spraypainted with "KKK" and "die" in several locations.
The neighbor denied committing the vandalism and told police he was willing to take a lie detector to clear his name.Officers were called to the 1200 West block of 400 South, where the victim, who is black, said she discovered her damaged car at 7:45 a.m. when she was leaving for work.
A police report said the woman complained of being taunted, harassed and intimidated by the man ever since she moved in a year ago. She told officers she believes the reason he has targeted her is because he wants a relative to move in where she lives.
