The U.S. Park Police is seeking a man suspected of writing racist graffiti on government properties.

Police said Ronald E. Bost Jr., 50, committed acts of racist vandalism and damage to the Iwo Jima Memorial and government property at Rosslyn Circle.

Bost is 6 feet 2 and 210 pounds. He has a scar on his upper lip and a large scar on the back of his head. He has tattoos on both arms, including faded swastikas on his knuckles.

He is known to frequent Arlington County public libraries, the National Mall, the Iwo Jima Memorial and the George Washington Parkway.

Anyone with information is asked to call Detective K.B. Fornshill at 202-610-8751. Police ask that you dial 911 if you spot Bost.
