The symbols were found on the building that used to hold the Taylor Rental Center at 775 State Road 206, according to Princeton Police.

They were called to the area Sunday and discovered that someone had broken a glass pane window of the building.

Inside, police found graffiti including swastikas and the number "88" - a number that has been known to stand for the words, "Heil Hitler."

They also discovered a threat that said, "Everyone who is not white Protestant is a hindrance to the human race and must be exterminated," according to police.

Police said they are still investigating the incident and the reason for putting graffiti on that particular building.
