The NYPD Hate Crime Unit is looking to find the person who engraved a swastika into a sidewalk in Greenpoint.
Officers were on Kingsland Avenue Friday cleaning it up after residents say it was there for years.
Chief Jeffrey Maddrey says his office was notified about it last week.
"We can't have this, this is absurd to have a swastika on the sidewalk,” says Officer Richie Russo. “So,you know, we felt we need to come out here and fix it."
