GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. — Graffiti marked the side of a home and utility box in Grand Rapids on Wednesday, making the claim that “ISIS Is Here.”

The graffiti was found at the corner of Lafayette and Logan.

Grand Rapids Police Sgt. Terry Dixon says the department is investigating the incident as graffiti for now, believing it is not tied to any sort of credible threat.

A resident of the neighborhood where the graffiti was found said it wasn’t there last night when she got home from work around 9:30 p.m. It is unknown at this time who tagged the wall.

The markings on the utility box have been cleaned up. There are plans to wash the markings off the home.
