Arcan Abu-hashish, owner of the Supreme Smoke Shop in Jefferson Park, which was hit with racist graffiti, on June 30, 2022.
A man is in custody after several Jefferson Park stores were defaced with swastikas, authorities said. Swastikas were painted on the Supreme Smoke Shop’s back door, boarded-up front door and street sign on Tuesday night. The white supremacist graffiti also was found at another nearby shop owned by people of color, Supreme Smoke Shop owner Arcan Abu-hashish said.Charges against the man are pending, said Officer Michelle Tannehill, a spokesperson for Chicago police.
Abu-hashish said Thursday that he has a suspicion about who could have left the racist graffiti: a problematic former customer he believes is affiliated with a white supremacist gang.On Friday, he told the Tribune he feels a bit safer now that a suspect is in custody. Police reported two businesses on the block were spray painted. Another swastika was found across the street from a building used by the Ho-Chunk Nation, an American Indian tribe whose historic territory includes land in Wisconsin and Illinois, tribe spokesperson Casey Brown said.
