Police in West Palm Beach are investigating after several disturbing antisemitic messages were discovered along with a Nazi symbol that was projected on a downtown office building.

The images were placed using a projector and a generator around 9 p.m. Saturday, NBC affiliate WPTV-TV reported.

West Palm Beach Police said the men who were found near the projector were not cooperative when confronted by officers.

"This is a welcoming - this is a diverse - city," spokesperson Mike Jachles said. "But we have no place for that. We don't welcome them, those types of messages."

The images come as residents in a Boca Raton neighborhood said packages with disturbing messages and pellets were thrown into their yards over the weekend.

In November, three teens were arrested after both racist and antisemitic graffiti was spray painted on the sidewalk and on signs in a Weston neighborhood.
