CORAL SPRINGS, Fla. -- A Jewish community center in South Florida is cleaning up after discovering swastikas spray-painted on the facility's walls this week.

Employees of the Soref Jewish Community Center in Coral Springs discovered the vandalism Monday morning. The gold spray-paint is expected to be removed Tuesday. Along with the swastikas, the phrase "Jews shall die" was also painted on the center's walls.

Donald Graw, executive director of the center, calls the vandalism "a despicable act by a coward or cowards."

The Florida Anti-Defamation League has offered a $1,000 reward for information that would lead to the arrest of the culprit responsible for the vandalism, and police are also offering a $500 reward.
