Group projects swastika, yells racist chants outside college dorm in Wisconsin

( The Hill ) – A group of four individuals projected a swastika on a college dorm building at the University of Wisconsin-Whitewater while yelling racist chants Sunday night, according to the school.

Chancellor Corey King said in a statement to his community that around 5:40 p.m. local time Sunday police heard reports of four people “outside of Knilans residence hall chanting racist words, lighting what appeared to be road flares and displaying antisemitic symbols.”

“We are everywhere. There will be blood, blood, blood,” one of the chants could be heard in a video of the incident posted on Facebook .

By the time the police arrived the group had already left, and video cameras showed they were no longer on the campus.

“The actions of the individuals are consistent with a group that has been visiting other campuses, and has no affiliation with UW-Whitewater whatsoever,” the chancellor said.

He told students there will be an increase in police presence for extra protection and reminded them of mental health resources available on campus.
