LOS ANGELES (KABC) -- Police are investigating a possible hate crime in Koreatown.

Officers say someone vandalized a Jewish Temple on Wilshire Boulevard and reportedly spray-painted "I hate your race" in all caps with exclamation marks and crosses.

Police say surveillance video shows a man wearing a hooded sweatshirt spray-painting the side of the building early Monday morning.
